Adding a VRG

Prerequisites

• A site has been created.
• The VRG to be added is running properly and is not added to any other site.
• The VRG to be added and UltraVR are on the same network plan and are communicating properly.
• VRG supports only the x86 architecture.
• UltraVR supports VRG alarm reporting. The SNMP service has been enabled for VRGs before the alarm reporting parameter configuration. SNMP v3 with higher security is used by default and a user name and password have been set for the VRG before the use of SNMP v3.

Context

One VRG can be added only to one site on UltraVR.

Procedure

1. On the menu bar, select Resources.
2. In the navigation tree, select the site where the VRG is to be added.
3. Choose Add FusionSphere Component > VRG.
   • In the Resource Statistics area, choose Add FusionSphere Component > VRG.

   

   • In the navigation tree, select FusionSphere, and choose Add FusionSphere Component > VRG.

   

4. Optional: Select Apply the port, username, and password of the first row to the newly added row.. The system will copy the port number, user name, and password of the FusionSphere in the first row to the new row to avoid repeated inputs.
5. Set the VRG parameters as described in Table 1.

   

   Table 1 Parameters for adding a VRG

   Parameter	Description	Value
   IP Address	IPv4 address of the VRG's first network adapter	[Example] 192.168.10.11
   Port	VRG communication port	[Value range] 1 to 65535 [Default value] 8080
   Username	Username: admin	-
   Password	Password of user admin	It can be obtained from an administrator.

   

   If an added VRG does not need to be detected, click Delete. The default information row cannot be deleted.

6. If the VRG alarms are required to be monitored by UltraVR, click in the operation button area where the VRG information row resides, and set the reporting parameters as described in Table 2.

   

   Table 2 Parameters for alarm reporting

   Parameter	Description	Value
   Type	Type of the SNMP protocol. The default version is SNMP v3. This parameter cannot be changed.	The system uses SNMP v3 for communication by default.
   Retry Count	Times for resending the SNMP operations. If this number of times is exceeded, the SNMP operation will be abandoned.	[Value range] 0 to 5 [Default value] 3
   Timeout Duration	Time that needs to be waited after the protocol message is sent.	[Value range] 0 to 5 [Default value] 5
   Port	Port used by UltraVR to receive VRG alarms.	[Value range] 1 to 65535 [Default value] 161
   Username	Username: admin	admin
   Environment Name	This parameter does not need to be configured.	-
   Environment Engine ID	This parameter does not need to be configured.	-
   Authentication Protocol	Protocol used for verifying messages.	NOTE: They system uses HMAC_SHA by default. This parameter cannot be modified.
   Authentication Password	If the authentication protocol is used to verify messages, you need to set the authentication password.	It must be the same as the authentication password set during the VRG configuration.
   Data Encryption Protocol	Encryption protocol used for encapsulating data.	NOTE: They system uses AES by default. This parameter cannot be modified.
   Data Encryption Password	If the encryption algorithm is used for encapsulating data, you need to set the data encryption password.	It must be the same as the data encryption password set during the VRG configuration.

7. Click OK.

Follow-up Procedure

After the VRG is added, you can refresh, modify, and delete VRG information. For details about subsequent operations, see Table 3.
