Arctic Integration

Prerequisites

  • Internet connectivity from the IR devices should be available.

  • Insert the PIM module into the IR1101 slot to activate LORAWAN0/1/0 and enter below mentioned configuration:

        interface LORAWAN0/1/0
    
        no ip address
    
        common-packet-forwarder profile
    
        gateway-id 1000000000000000
    
        cpf enable
    
        arp timeout 0
    

    Note: The gateway ID is a flexible variable, and the application uses the token to identify the specific gateway ID.

  • IR1101 should be available as a Externally-managed device under Application Manager.

  • Load network advantage license

Procedure

  1. Include PIM as a network device.

    • From the left pane, click Inventory > Network Devices.

    • Assets From the right pane, click Add Network Device, complete the following fields.

      Field Desciption
      Name The name for the Network Device.
      Type Select LoRaWAN PIM from the drop-down list.
      Note: The LoRaWAN PIM type is accessible when you enable the LoRaWAN PIM Support or Asset Vision feature flag.
      Select PID Number Select an option from the drop-down list.
      Serial Number The unique 11-digit number.
      Region Add region.
      Choose Antenna Add Antenna.
      Organization Hierarchy Assign Organization Hierarchy.
    • Click Add.
      Device will get added and onboarded. After adding the device, it will show up on the Network Devices page.

      The Network devices page displays a list of Network devices, filtered according to the selected level in the Organization Hierarchy. Only the levels accessible to the currently logged-in user are shown in bold text. Selecting a specific level in the hierarchy will filter the data and widget values of the network devices present under that hierarchy level and all of its child levels. The filtered network devices are displayed in the right pane of the page. If you select the Global level, then, all the network devices present for the tenant will be listed and the widget values are updated accordingly. The number next to a level is the Active Alerts (associated with all network devices, if any) count for that level which by default shows the aggregated alerts count (count of alerts on that level and the levels below). If you want to see only counts for the specific organization level, then, you click Settings located on the top of the organization hierarchy and select Local Alerts under Number Display. The Organization Hierarchy pane can be collapsed.

      Network Devices shows total count, including active, inactive, and unused. Alerts count shows Total alerts, including critical, major, and minor.

      Column Header Description
      Name Name provided to the network device while onboarding
      Org Hierarchy The Level in the hierarchy where the network device is present.
      Network Device ID Unique gateway ID of the network device
      Serial Number The serial number of the device
      Alert Severity The severity of the alert. This can be Critical, Major, or Minor.
      Status The status of the network device:
      * Inventory: The network device has been claimed by a tenant.
      * Unheard: The network device has been onboarded, but has not registered with IAV, yet.
      * Online: IAV has connectivity with the network device.
      * Offline: IAV has lost connection with the network device.
      Last Seen The timestamp at which the status message was received by the network device.
  2. Generate token from summary view and copy the token.

    • Click on network device to view its summary.
      You will be redirected to the Network Details Summary page.
    • Go to IAV AGENT CONFIGURATION and click Generate to generate token.

      Note: A single token contains encoded information such as Gateway ID, Tenant ID, and region details.

    • Click Copy.
  3. Navigate to Application Manager Service.

    • Add application. Refer Add applications to IoT OD cloud.
      Application name will appear in Application Inventory.
    • Click on Application name to install it on the device.
    • Click Install Application.
    • Select the required network device name from the list and click Next.

      Note: The device name should be set as cdc-acm.

      Configure Application page appears.
    • Go to Application Specific Parameters and add the token you copied from IAV's summary page.
    • Click Next.
      Review page appears.
    • Check all the details and click Finish.

Edit a Network Device

  1. From the network device summary page, click Edit Network Device.
  2. Modify the required fields and click Update.

Monitoring a Network Device

A network device can be monitored by viewing its message received and transmitted data periodically.
Go to Data Summary and select the time period to view monitoring data.

Note:

  • The data is aggregated on an hourly basis if the selected time duration is one day.
  • The data is aggregated on a six-hourly basis if the selected time duration is more than a day but less than a week
  • The data is aggregated on a daily basis if the selected time duration is more than a week.

There are two sections of bar graphs available, as follows:

Messages Received: This section shows the bar graphs for total messages received vs the messages received with OK status.
Ok status: The message that has passed the Cyclic Redundancy Check (CRC) / message that has no corrupted data.

Messages Transmitted: This section shows the bar graphs for total messages in the transmission queue vs the messages transmitted by the network device.

Move Org Hierarchy

  1. From the left pane click Inventory > Network Devices > select one or more network devices to move to a different level.
  2. Click Actions > Move Org Hierarchy.
  3. Select a level from the Assign Org Hierarchy list. Click Expand to expand the hierarchy and Collapseto collapse the hierarchy. You can also search for the level in the Find Hierarchy search field above the hierarchy. Start typing to narrow down the search. Click Assign.
