Centralized Supervision & Monitoring

The 8300 provides supervision and monitoring of Algo IP endpoints, and to notify / alert when a device is not unreachable or offline. Configuration options include playing an alert via multicast and/or audio output. Alternatively, a SIP call to a target extension can be configured to play a message as an alert. In either scenario email alerts can be simultaneously configured. Any number and combination of Algo IP speakers, paging adapters and strobe lights can be part of an RTP multicast for notification purposes, where multicast zones can direct alerts to specific locations as desired.

In addition to offline status, other device status conditions visible via the 8300 dashboard include: online, software failure, SNMP disabled, and warning if the Controller is trying to reach the device. Monitoring intervals are also configurable.

Email alerts can also be configured in the 8300 for disconnected devices and heartbeat monitoring, even if no devices are offline.

Device details such as IP address, MAC address, Algo part no. and username of the device are also displayed in the dashboard, providing a convenient high-level summary of all Algo endpoints deployed. Up to 350 endpoints are currently supported.

Benefits of the Algo IP Endpoint Supervisor

• Network supervision and monitoring of Algo IP endpoints to ensure higher system reliability, particularly for mission critical voice paging and emergency notification deployments.
• Web browser convenience for centralized Algo device details and status condition.
• Efficient time-saving management and problem resolution of Algo IP endpoints to minimize downtime.
• Improved RoI.
• PoE (IEEE 802.3af).
