Virtual Device Networks
Virtual device networks are used to control number of parallel device I/O sessions by groups of devices or for all devices managed by an Iotellect. This is handy for fine-tuning monitoring:
Of large networks, where startup of a monitoring server can cause heavy traffic
Of radio and similar networks, where a group of devices is sharing a low-bandwidth connection to the server
The networks are set up in the global server configuration. Each network is defined by:
Unique Name identifying the virtual network within the server
Human-friendly Description
Capacity, i.e. number of parallel I/O transactions allowed for all devices that belong to the network
Transaction Delay. A pause after each I/O transaction before starting a new one for devices that belong to the network
Once a virtual network has been set up, it's possible to add devices to it. To add device to a virtual network, select it in a device's Generic Properties dialog.
