SNMP over WebSocket

IT&Operations > Security > Advanced configuration

SNMP over WebSocket allows to monitor a turret securely.

SNMP can be secured by using the WebSocket Secure (WSS) protocol.

The WebSocket (WS) protocol is used when the URI starts with "ws://".

The WebSocket Secure (WSS) protocol is used when the URI starts with "wss://".

Setting

The WebSocket URI of the Assure server must be configured with this setting:

Location: Terminal Boot Settings, TPO Boot Settings, SNMP

SNMP

SNMP WebSocket targets
Key: application.global.snmp.websocket.targets Description: Defines WebSocket targets for SNMP monitoring. Multiple targets can be defined. Constraint: URIs separated with a pipe character ("\|"). Example : ws://echo.websocket.org\|wss://echo2.websocket.org If connecting to Tradesense then the format should be: wss:///snmp Related settings: SNMP Default Translate Mode (application.global.snmp.translate.mode) Enable SNMP over UDP (application.global.snmp.enableUDP)

The target URL for Assure is : wss://<tradesenseFQDN>/snmp

ImportantNote_Icon

To be able to use SNMP over WebSocket with Assure, only WebSocket Secure (WSS) protocol is supported.

As a result TradeSense certificate needs to be configured (see here) and the TradeSense FQDN needs to be used in the SNMP WebSocket targets setting.
