3.1.4 SDS DP Remote Server Configuration

Use this procedure to configure SDS DP Remote Servers to allow FABR to use SDS for address lookup and resolution.

  1. From the active NOAM, click Communication Agent, and then Configuration, and then Remote Servers.
  2. Click Insert.
  3. Enter a unique Remote Server Name.
  4. Enter the Remote Server IP Address.

  5. For Remote Server Mode, select Server.
  6. Assign the Remote Server to one of the Available Local Server Groups.
  7. Click Ok.
  8. Select Communication Agent, and then Configuration, and then Connection Groups
  9. Select the DPSvcGroup and click Edit.
  10. Assign the Remote Server you just created to the DPSvcGroup Connection group.
  11. Click Ok.
  12. Expand the Servers assigned to the DPSvcGroup to see that the new Remote Server is now included.
The operational status of what was provisioned can be verified by using the Communication Agent, and then Maintenance pages.
  • Click Communication Agent, and then Maintenance, and then Connection Status to verify all Remote Server connections added are shown as InService on all local servers.
  • Click Communication Agent, and then Maintenance, and then Routed Service Status to verify the status is Available for all local servers that are provisioned to connect.
