Ibrahim Posted December 3, 2012 Posted December 3, 2012 Dear Experts, I need instruction regarding how to monitor IP Camera which is of course a agentless device.If the camera goes offline,I should get alert.How? Regards
Administrators Paul Posted December 3, 2012 Administrators Posted December 3, 2012 Hello, You can monitor the TCP port of the IP Camera using Mobile PC Monitor's Port Monitoring feature. To setup the Port Monitoring feature you need to go to PC Monitor Manager application in the System tab, Network subtab and Ports subtab. From there you can choose the port's name where you can pun IP Camera, port number and the IP of the device. More information on the setup process can be found in the User Manual. Paul.
Ibrahim Posted December 4, 2012 Author Posted December 4, 2012 Thanks for the reply, Paul. I am at remote site now so will go to the company and have a look at it. In the meanwhile, I have doubt that is it necessary to mention port? The IP cameras are just having an ip address nothing else.
Administrators Paul Posted December 4, 2012 Administrators Posted December 4, 2012 Yes. If you are not typing any port in the browser then you need to specify HTTP port which is 80. Hope this helps.
Ibrahim Posted December 4, 2012 Author Posted December 4, 2012 Hello, I added camera's ip with port number 80. But the added device is not showing in the computer list. Now what is the next procedure ? Regards
Administrators Paul Posted December 4, 2012 Administrators Posted December 4, 2012 In order to show up on the computer list you need to make sure your service is enabled: Look in the manager application, does it say that the service is running?
Ibrahim Posted December 5, 2012 Author Posted December 5, 2012 Hello, I mean the camera not the computer. The computer is showing in the screen but what about the agentless client. How will I get notification if IP camera is offline. I perform the above process to add the agentless client in the network tab. I added the camera ip and put port 80. Plz help
Ibrahim Posted December 5, 2012 Author Posted December 5, 2012 In the meanwhile I just want to let Administrator know that, I have a subscribed copy of this software with more than 50 client. The detail information can be provided upon request.
Administrators Paul Posted December 5, 2012 Administrators Posted December 5, 2012 You can always have ping tests on the IP you need. This way you will get a notification when it's offline. Just make sure the computer that's monitoring the device is always online.
Ibrahim Posted December 5, 2012 Author Posted December 5, 2012 Above solution worked for me. Thanks a lot for helping. Have a nice day. Paul 1
