Web Client: Monitoring Your
Environment
The Web Client provides a real-time overview of alerts and device details, including sensor readings and
images captured by camera pods, for a NetBotz appliance running at least version 4.2. It does not require
the Advanced View application and Java Runtime Environment.
By default, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) is enabled on the NetBotz appliance. The SSL certificate is
generated by the appliance (self-signed) and requires no user interaction.
To access the Web Client, enter the hostname or IP address of the appliance in a browser. Once you log
in, you can view data according to the privilege set assigned to your user account.
The interface is divided into five tabs: Status, Alerts, Cameras, Pods, and Sensor History.
Status tab
The Status tab provides an overview of the devices monitored by the NetBotz appliance.
Note: For an air flow sensor, data must be accumulated for 15 to 30 minutes before accurate
air flow readings are available. After power is applied to the device, air flow sensor data
appears as N/A until enough data is collected.
• Alerting Sensors: Displays the sensors reporting alerts, and their severity, at all the devices
monitored by the NetBoltz appliance.
You can select a sensor to view its details, and change its label or sensor value history, or
choose whether to report unplugged errors, if necessary.
• Security Sensors: Displays pods and sensors reporting rack access alerts, and their severity, at all
the devices monitored by the NetBoltz appliance (available only when a rack access device is
managed by the NetBotz appliance).
You can select a sensor to view its details, and change its label, if necessary.
Security sensors include all Door sensors, Handle sensors, and Lock sensors connected to a
Rack Access Pod 170, and any Door, Handle, or Lock sensors connected to a pod-shared Rack
Access PX-HID appliance.
• Cameras: Displays thumbnail views and identification information for all the cameras monitored
by the NetBotz appliance, regardless of whether an alert is reported.
You can select a camera to view its details, change the resolution and refresh rate, or change
the camera angle (supported cameras only).
• Maps: Displays the device maps created in the NetBotz Advanced View, showing the location of
pods and sensors, and the alert state of the devices on the map. You use the Advanced view to
create, edit, or delete a map.
When more than one device map is stored on the appliance, the first map in the list is
displayed by default. You can select from the list to view additional device maps. You can
select a device in a map to view the readings and alerts for each sensor.
