Following is the procedure on how to enable synchronization with RCS server to receive updated rules:
NOTE: if an injection is in progress, Network Injector is already synchronized with RCS server and thus the rules are automatically loaded. Go to step 4. See "Checking Network Injector status "
Steps | Result |
---|---|
1. In the Network Injector tab, click Config: synchronization is enabled. 2. During synchronization, RCS queries Network Injector every 30 seconds. Sent injection rules will be received at the end of the first interval. IMPORTANT: updates are only received if sent from RCS Console.See "Managing the Network Injector" IMPORTANT: enable synchronization as usual to guarantee constant control room updates. 3. To stop synchronization, click Stop. |
