Introduction
To facilitate communication between Prime Infrastructure and the ACS View Server and to access the ACS View Server tab, you must add a view server with credentials.
Note Prime Infrastructure only supports ACS View Server 5.1 or later.
Configuration
To configure the ACS View Server Credentials, follow these steps:
Step 1 Choose Design > External Management > ACS View Servers. ( In old version this can be configured under configure > add ACS View Server- like a below listed screen shot)
Step 2 Enter the port number of the ACS View Server you are adding. (Some ACS View Servers do not allow you to change the port on which HTTPS runs.)
Step 3 Enter the password that was established on the ACS View Server. Confirm the password.
Step 4 Specify the time in seconds after which the authentication request times out and a retransmission is attempted by the controller. (This is again added in the newer version)
Step 5 Specify the number of retries to be attempted.
Step 6 Click Save.
Step 7 On the ACS View Server, all we need the below listed command from the CLI and an admin account.
"acs config-web-interface view enable"
Step 8 The account, we'll use to integrate PI with ACS view server should have admin rights. You may use the default acsadmin account.
