Configure
Users that have access to the configure page (usually
administrators of the AutoNOC installation) are able to control and modify how exactly
AutoNOC works. Please read the prior topic 2.6 - Design to get
familiar with how the window manager and web GUI works. The configure screen makes use of
the same technology.The following screen
shows the configure page:

2.7.1 Licensing
AutoNOC's licensing dialog is relatively straight forward
as shown in the following screen shot. It is useful to note that you can get counters for
how many devices, probes, and users are currently defined in the model.

2.7.2 SNMP MIB Objects
All compiled SNMP MIB Object IDs are also listed in one
large tree on the configure page. This includes descriptions, the object ID, textual ID,
object type, status, etc., as shown in the following screen shot.

When exploring the tree, click on any tree
item, and then click on the Object Information tab to retrieve the full
information on the SNMP object. This tree is a useful reference when designing custom
probes. For more information on adding and compiling your own MIBs, see the topic 4.1 - Adding SNMP MIBs.
2.7.3 Portal Setup
The portal setup dialog is used to customize the name, IP
address, TCP port, and other settings of the AutoNOC portal.

As the following dialog shows, this is also
where you configure the e-mail server for AutoNOC to send alerts to.

Full information on launching e-mail alerts
based on alarms is available in section 3.8 - Actions.
Additionally, you can find more information on configuring AutoNOC's firewall in section 1.10 - Security.
2.7.4 Services
The services configuration objects provide the user with
access to the actual services and their settings that make AutoNOC work. You can find an
in depth discussion of the AutoNOC services in section 1.3 -
Services. To modify the settings of one of the services, click on the named service
and browse the options presented.
Some common service tasks:
- Stop Service
Stops the service and prevents it from performing it's tasks.
- Start Service
Starts a stopped service.
2.7.5 Users
User objects (and user access) is managed on this page.
Here are some common user tasks performed on this page.
- Add User
To add a new user click on the Users tree root and then select New
User.
- Delete User

open the user object dialog, and then click on the Delete button two times.
For more information on users, please see
