AIdirector Version 2.1x Configuration GuideGetting Started: AIdirector Overview
AIdirector OverviewAIdirector is a remote network element database that provides the ability to navigate to any network element and launch applications that are compatible with each instance of a particular model. One of the common uses is finding a network element and launching a browser to connect to it.
AIdirector supports all IP devices and any non-IP device that can be connected to an Applied Innovation mediation device. The following list provides some examples:
AIbadger
AIremote
AIswitch
AIscout
AIdirector allows for add-on extensions such as EventDirector and PowerDirector that enhance the functionality of the base application. These extensions are available separately and are installed on top of an existing AIdirector server.
AIdirector is used by technicians to access network elements, and by administrators to populate the AIdirector database, configure network elements, and access default settings.
1-2
AIdirector Version 2.1x Configuration GuideGetting Started: Using the Main Window
Using the Main WindowThe AIdirector main window lets you navigate by region or subregion and also displays information about regions and subregions you select. Navigation results display as a detailed table with network elements, model names, and associated notes.
The Element Filter section of the main window is used for Searching for Network Elements.
Figure 1-1 AIdirector Main Window
1-3
AIdirector Version 2.1x Configuration GuideGetting Started: Using the Element Dialog Box
Using the Element Dialog BoxYou can open the Element dialog box by selecting a network element in the main window, then clicking File > Edit > Element. From the Element dialog box, you can view and edit details about each network element including:
Name
Model
Region
IP address
List of supported protocols
Log
Element groups
Notes
Tip: You can configure AIdirector to open the Element dialog box when you double-click a network element in the main window. To use this shortcut, choose File > User Preferences, click the AIdirector tab, then choose Edit element from the Preferred double click action drop-down list.
Figure 1-2 Element Dialog Box - Protocols Tab
1-4
AIdirector Version 2.1x Configuration GuideGetting Started: Using the Element Dialog Box
The Element dialog box provides information about a network element. The Protocols tab lists the protocols supported by this network element. When an IP-capable network element is added to the database, this table will be pre-populated with the default ports indicated for its model. You can then edit the protocol port values for this individual element as required.
Note: If the Add and Fill buttons are unavailable, this means that all protocols available for this network element have been enabled. If the Add and Fill buttons are available, this indicates there are protocols available for the model that have not been enabled for this particular network element. Click Add to add protocols individually, or click Fill to add all available protocols.
For serial-connected network elements, the protocol entries will be entered through the AIdirector GUI. In most cases, these entries will consist of a single protocol entry for its serial port. For those elements the user must select the name of the access network element (usually an AI device) that is providing the IP-to-serial mediation for that protocol.
Log TabThe Log tab lists a summary of log entries pertaining to this network element. Each log entry contains up to 4096 characters of text, the date and time the entry was created, and the username of the user who created the entry. To view a log entry, select it from the list, then click View. To delete a log entry, select it from the list, then click Delete. To add a new log entry, click Add, then enter log text in the Add Log Entry dialog box.

AIdirector Version 2.1x Configuration GuideGetting Started: Using the User Preferences Dialog Box
Using the User Preferences Dialog BoxYou can open the User Preferences dialog box by choosing File > User Preferences.
By default, the User Preferences dialog box contains two tabs: AIdirector and Applications.
Note: More tabs may appear in the User Preferences dialog box depending on which AIdirector extensions are installed.
The AIdirector tab allows you to choose the action that will take place when you double-click a network element in the AIdirector main window. You can opt to open the Edit Element dialog box when an element is double-clicked, or you can opt to launch an application (such as Internet Explorer) to access the element.
Figure 1-6 User Preferences Dialog Box - AIdirector Tab
The Applications tab is used to configure applications installed on the PC. The location of installed applications can be auto-detected (for common applications) or configured manually.
Applications are associated with protocols. As network elements are added, the dialog box indicates which protocols (and by extension, which applications) they support.
1-8
AIdirector Version 2.1x Configuration GuideGetting Started: Using the User Preferences Dialog Box
Figure 1-7 User Preferences Dialog Box - Applications Tab
The application shown at the top of the list will be used by default when accessing network elements. If the application at the top of the list is incompatible with the network element you are accessing, AIdirector will use the second application in the list to access the element. If the second application also is incompatible, AIdirector will use the third application to access the element, and so forth.
You can assign priority to an application by selecting it on the Applications tab, then clicking the Up Arrow and Down Arrow buttons located at the bottom of the Applications tab to move the application to a higher or lower priority in the list.
Note: In the AIdirector Application menu, applications appear in order of their assigned priority.

AIdirector Version 2.1x Configuration GuideGetting Started: Using the Dependents Dialog Box
Using the Dependents Dialog BoxThe Dependents dialog box displays a list of any serial devices that are connected to a specific mediation device, such as AIbadger. This dialog box can be accessed through the Element dialog box.
Use this dialog box to either open and edit a serial device or delete a serial device.
Figure 1-9 Dependents Dialog Box
1-11
AIdirector Version 2.1x Configuration GuideGetting Started: Managing Security
Managing SecuritySecurity is administered through the use of user groups and element groups. This provides a convenient method for assigning users access to certain network elements, but restricting access to other network elements.
The AIdirector administrator creates element groups, then assigns network elements membership in one or more element groups. The administrator also creates user groups with different permission levels, then assigns individual users membership in one or more user groups.
Here is an example to illustrate the use of user groups and element groups.
Consider a company that hires a contractor from Acme Corporation, which specializes in servicing Model X devices. The company wants this contractor to have complete access to all Model X devices in a given region, but no access to any other devices.
The AIdirector administrator creates element group ModelX containing Model X devices only. The administrator then creates user group AcmeTechs with manager permissions and assigns the contractor to this user group. Finally, the administrator assigns user group AcmeTechs to element group ModelX.
Now suppose the company wants the Acme contractor to be able to view the status of all devices in the region, but have administrative access to Model X devices only. The AIdirector administrator creates a second element group, AllDevices, containing all devices in the region. The administrator then creates user group AllTechs with status permissions and assigns the contractor to that user group as well. Finally, the administrator assigns user group AllTechs to element group AllDevices.
The contractor has status permissions on all devices in the region, based on membership in the user group AllTechs. The contractor also has manager permissions on Model X devices, based on membership in the user group AcmeTechs.
See Users and User Groups and Element Groups for detailed instructions on managing user groups and element groups.

Models OverviewEach vendor in the database has a list of models associated with it. A model contains information relating to a specific type of device in the database. The database entry for a model indicates its vendor and whether a model can support connectivity by its own IP address. A vendor may manufacture many different models. The database also stores the list of possible protocols that may be available for a model.
Once a model has been added to the database, you have the option to:
Rename a model
Delete a model
Associate a model with a different vendor
Add or delete protocols for a model

AIdirector Version 2.1x Configuration GuideNetwork Elements: Network Element Overview
Network Element OverviewA network element must have a model associated with it, but a network element in the database does not have to have an IP address. Network elements that are connected to the network via serial port to an AI device will not have their own IP addresses. Each network element links to its own Network Element dialog box, showing details for that element.
A network element has a name, is associated with a model, and has either IP or serial connectivity.
IP connected network elements have an IP address.
Serial connected network elements have an access network element, which must be in the AIdirector database. Each serial connected network element must be associated with an IP port on its assigned access network element.
Network elements are associated with protocols. The list of protocols for a network element determines which applications will be launched.
On IP connected network elements, listed protocols correspond to TCP ports on the device.
On serial connected network elements, listed protocols are mapped to ports on the access network elements.

AIdirector Version 2.1x Configuration GuideUsers and User Groups: User Group Overview
User Group OverviewPermissions in AIdirector are assigned to user groups. Permissions are never assigned explicitly to individual users. Instead, users are granted permissions implicitly based on their membership in user groups. A user must belong to at least one user group, but may belong to many user groups. In turn, user groups are assigned access to one or more element groups.
Each user group is assigned a permission level, which applies to all users in the user group. The following table describes the four available permission levels.
Table 9-1 User Group Permission Summary
Permission Description
status This permission allows users to view the status of network elements in the element group(s) that have been assigned to this user group.
manager This permission allows users status permission, plus the ability to launch applications, create new network elements, and edit existing network elements within assigned element group(s).
supervisor This permission allows users complete administrative control within assigned element group(s).
administrator This permission allows users complete administrative control across the AIdirector network. There is no accessibility restriction based on assigned element groups.

AIdirector Version 2.1x Configuration GuideElement Groups: Element Group Overview
Element Group OverviewAIdirector administrators group network elements together in order to manage user access. User groups are never granted access directly to individual network elements. Instead, user groups are granted access to element groups, which contain individual network elements.
There are two types of element groups: fixed element groups and dynamic element groups. The difference lies in the way individual elements are added to the element group.
Fixed Element GroupsA fixed element group contains a finite number of network elements. Each network element is added manually by the AIdirector administrator, or by a user that belongs to a user group with supervisor or higher permissions. A fixed element group can grow only if network elements are added manually to the element group, and can shrink only if network elements are manually removed from the group or deleted from the AIdirector database.
Dynamic Element GroupsA dynamic element group contains a variable number of network elements. An AIdirector administrator (or user that belongs to a user group with supervisor permissions) defines a dynamic element group by specifying a set of search criteria. For example, a dynamic element group might contain all network elements with names containing NYC, or all network elements with IP addresses containing 10.40.
Any new network element whose properties meet the search criteria is automatically added to the dynamic element group. If a network element’s properties no longer meet the search criteria (for example, a new element name or IP address is assigned to the element, or the element is moved to a new region), it is automatically removed from the dynamic element group.
