Configuration Settings

When a node is added, GigaVUE‑FM registers itself as follows:

  • Notification target for SNMP Traps, Events and Syslog.
  • Meta data exporter in case of the Application Filtering Intelligence solution.

By default, eth0 IP of GigaVUE‑FM is used as the target address.

Note:  Traps, events and Syslogs will not be received by GigaVUE‑FM when eth0 IP is registered as target address in the following cases:

o   Either GigaVUE‑FM is behind NAT, or the node being added is behind NAT or both.
o   Cloud deployment such as AWS: If AWS and customer infrastructure are isolated, then nodes in the customer infrastructure will not be able to reach GigaVUE‑FM via eth0. Public IP of GigaVUE‑FM must be used to register the target address.

Traffic received in GigaVUE‑FM can be of the following two types:

  • Management Traffic
  • Data Traffic

Using the Configuration page you can configure any other interface as the default interface. To do this:

1. On the left navigation pane, click and select System > Event Notifications > Configuration.
