Before You Begin

Before adding new monitored devices to DPOD, you may backup the objects that the DPOD will alter during the configuration phase, such as the XML management interface, the WS-M agent etc.

  1.  Inside DPOD's Web Console, navigate to Monitored Devices  [Manage->Devices->Monitored Devices] and click on “Add Device”
  2. Enter the required information required. (Consult Device Management for details)
    Note that the device name must be identical to the System Identifier/Appliance Name of the DataPower Gateway as set in the IDG itself, and must meet the requirements detailed in http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21668456.
