Administration

The Administration page can be accessed via the Administration menu item by users with Administrator role.

The License Information section of the Setup tab displays information about the current Supervisor license, including the licensed features, maintenance period, maximum number of devices that can be controlled (NPB CM module), and data quota usage (Cloud TAP module). Data quota usage tracks the amount of traffic that has been mirrored by every Profitap K8s TAP.

License Information section

The Configuration Backup and Restore section of the Setup tab allows the exporting and importing of the Supervisor instance configuration. The data can be exported by inserting a passphrase, selecting the parts to be exported, and pressing the Export button. The system will generate an encrypted archive that can be safely stored as backup. This package can be imported back to the Supervisor instance via a similar process: insert the passphrase, select the parts of the configuration you wish to import, press the Import button, and select the archived configuration file.

Notes:

• The same passphrase as the one used for exporting the configuration file is required for importing it.
• The export functionality will not backup the Supervisor license.
• When restoring a backup configuration generated by Supervisor v0.9.x into Supervisor v1.0.0 and later, the external device configuration will be lost.

Configuration Backup and Restore section

The Syslog tab displays the logs of the Supervisor system. On this page, the system logs can be refreshed, downloaded, or reset. It is also possible to configure remote collectors for the system logs. This can be done by clicking the Remote Servers button and using the view that appears to configure the remote logging server details.

The Support tab contains documentation to help you use Supervisor: a link to the Profitap Knowledge Base, accessible over the Internet, and the Supervisor manual, datasheet, and REST API documentation, which can be downloaded directly from the Supervisor instance. A section for contacting Customer Support is also present.
