Edge Remote Networks

the edge remote module allows you to remotely connect your edge devices to the default or added networks you can view additional information about the networks status, bandwidth and peers you can also set the maximum transmission unit (mtu) of the network interface the edge remote module includes three sub modules networks the edge remote networks pane includes two sections network contains a list of edge remote networks, including a default network you can add a network, modify a network, set a network as default, and remove a network projects contains a list of companies / projects that access the networks you can change the network for a company / project statistics the edge remote network statistics pane includes network view the edge remote network status, view the number of networks, view the number of peers, and view the percentage of networks online networks bandwidth view the amount of data transmitted for the connected networks in mbps network peers view the connected peers which are connected edged devices in another project settings (version 2 12 0 and later) the edge remote settings pane includes mtu configure the maximum transmission unit (mtu) value of the network interface access edge remote networks ui to access the edge software networks ui log in to the belden horizon data manager (bhdm) admin console at the following url https //\[bhdm ip address] 8446 from the navigation panel, select edge devices edge device's edge software update pane by default appears from edge device's navigation sub panel, select edge remote networks edge device's edge remote networks pane appears the user interface below is for belden horizon data manager version 2 15 0 and later network from the edge remote networks pane, you can add and manage remote networks and view the company and project for connected edge devices the edge remote networks pane includes two sections the network section contains a list of edge remote networks you can add a network, modify a network, set a network as default, filter the networks list, refresh the networks list and remove a network the networks list displays the network name, the network's subnet mask, the type of subnet, the port, which network is default and its state, and an action list where you can perform tasks the projects section contains a list of companies and their associated projects that have access to the networks these are added automatically to the default network when you connect an edge device to a project in belden horizon data manager you can view the projects without a subnet mask, refresh the project list, and filter the project list if you have added multiple networks, you can change the network for a company / project listed here the projects list displays the network name, the network's subnet mask, company and project name of the connected edge device, the number of peers associated with the network, and an action list where you can perform tasks \[1] view network name docid\ vkkizspxmib0chn9a7h8p \[2] peers qty / max number available for belden horizon data manager version 2 15 0 and later review the capacity of activated devices for the work the following information displays peers qty the current number of activated devices for the network max number the maximum number of activated devices allowed percentage the capacity of activated devices remaining for the network represented as a percentage value for example, if the capacity is five activated devices, and there are currently five activated devices, the percentage will display 0% capacity remaining \[3] show filter / hide filter search by network name , subnet , or listen port \[4] refresh \[5] add a network docid\ vkkizspxmib0chn9a7h8p \[6] action menu edit set default the network assigned to the company / projects do not change when you set a new default network any new edge devices that you connect are automatically assigned to the new default network remove you cannot remove a default network set a different network as default if you want to remove the network \[7] show filter / hide filter search by network name , subnet , company / project , peers qty \[8] refresh \[9] show projects without subnet / show all projects \[10] action menu change network you must have at least two networks added to the networks list statistics from the edge remote network statistics pane in the edge remote module, you can view information about the remote networks for edge devices the edge remote network statistics pane includes three sections the network section contains a panel indicating network status, the number of networks, the number of peers associated with the edge devices, and the percentage of networks online the networks bandwidth section contains a chart of the bandwidth over time for the connected networks in mbps you can hover over the chart to view the bandwidth for a particular point in time the networks peers section contains a list of connected peers that are connected edged devices in another project you can view the default network for any connected peer click a network name to view more details settings note this feature below is for belden horizon data manager version 2 12 0 and later from the settings pane in the edge remote module, you can set and configure the value of the maximum transmission unit (mtu) of the network interface the mtu is the maximum size of a data packet that can be transmitted over a network interface without fragmentation this value configures the belden horizon data manager (bhdm)'s connection to a belden horizon data operations (bhdo) device and can be used to address some potential network issues between the bhdm and a bhdo the default value is 1280 bytes and can be set to the following for belden horizon data manager version 2 11 0 to 2 14 0, between 1280 bytes to 1500 bytes for belden horizon data manager version 2 16 0 and later, between 576 bytes and 1500 bytes
