The administration page allows following actions:
 |
- Power: Reboot or power off the Allegro Network Multimeter. After clicking on the buttons a confirmation dialog will appear. Rebooting is most of the time not necessary as it takes significant time. If the packet processing needs to be restarted because some options can not be changed during runtime, the next option is a better choice as it minimizes the downtime.
- Processing: Restart the Allegro Network Multimeter processing software. This will reset all measured statistics. Choosing this option will stop the packet processing but the machine and its web interface is still available as the device itself is not rebooted. The packet processing core is restarted with the current settings and will be processing packets again after a few seconds.
- Configuration: By clicking on Reset System Configuration all settings including the network configuration will be reset to factory defaults and the system will be restarted.
SSL certificate
The device comes with a pre-installed generic SSL certificate but an own certificate can be installed: The Install SSL certificate button will open a dialog that will allow to upload a X.509 certificate file and a RSA key file. Upon successful upload this certificate will be used to serve the user interface. The Reset to default SSL certificate button will remove any user-provided SSL certificate and the user interface will be served using the default SSL certificate. It is currently not possible to issue a signing request procedure. To use a certificate which needs to be signed by a company CA, the user has to create that certificate on a separate machine, create the signing request, and deploy the final certificate to the device using the option above.
