Sequoia Configuration - CNS Gateway

Overview

The gateway handles the communication of messages between Sequoia and CNS.

Configuration involves adding the login details required to authenticate with CNS's system - these login details are provided by CNS at the time of acquiring your badge code(s).

Setting up the Gateway

To access the gateway, navigate through Sequoia Enterprise Management in the Sequoia Configuration application and expand the Sequoia Gateway Configuration node.

Click on CNS Gateway and the application settings configuration page will be shown in the right-hand pane.

Label	Description
CNS Gateway	These controls indicate how the Windows service is configured. This is normally setup at the time of installation but can be changed here. The service can be stopped/started using the 'stop' and 'play' buttons. The user account can be changed by clicking on the user icon
Web service URI	This is address of CNS's web service. This should not be changed unless under guidance from the ASM Helpdesk.
Mailbox URI	This is address of CNS's mailbox service. This is the address where report response messages are held. This should not be changed unless under guidance from the ASM Helpdesk.
Listening queue	This is the message queue that the gateway uses to send messages to CNS. This should not be changed unless under guidance from the ASM Heldpesk.
Poll interval	This governs how often, in minutes, the gateway will check for messages at CNS. The default setting is 1 minute; changing this would cause delays in receiving responses from CNS.
Use Proxy	If access to the CNS web service URI is required to go through a proxy server (you're own IT department will determine if this is the case) then enable this checkbox and complete the proxy server details below with the details obtained from your own IT department.

Configuring the Badges to use the Gateway

Each badge you have for CNS must be configured to use the gateway. Refer to the this section for configuring badges.

Click the Badge Settings tab.

In order to assign a badge, click the Add button. This will display the Assign CHIEF Role dialog.

Enter the 3 letter badge code and click OK.

Once the badge has been added, the remainder of the configuration can be completed.
