  5. Install and configure the plug-in for NDS
  6. Configure the IPAWS plug-in settings

Configure the IPAWS plug-in settings

  1. Open the 
    NDS
     console on the 
    NDS
     server in administrator mode.
  2. Navigate to 
    Management
     > 
    Configuration
    .
  3. Click 
    New Configuration
    .
  4. In the 
    New Key
     field, enter the following value: 
    nds.plugins.ipaws
  5. From Windows Explorer, open the following file: 
    
AtHocENS/DeliveryServer/Plugins/ipaws/AtHoc.NDS.Plugins.IPAWS.dll.config
  6. Copy the contents and close the file. 
    <nds.plugins.ipaws>
  <supportedDevices>
    <device type="IPAWSNWEM" enabled="true" secondsTimeout="600" requiredInilizations="None" maxTasksPerInit="50" maxTasksPerExecution="50" maxTasksCanProcess="50" alertCancelOffsetInMin="5" certExpirationReminderInDays="40" />
    <device type="IPAWS" enabled="true" secondsTimeout="600" requiredInilizations="None" maxTasksPerInit="50" maxTasksPerExecution="50" maxTasksCanProcess="50" alertCancelOffsetInMin="5" certExpirationReminderInDays="40" />
  </supportedDevices>
  <supportedEvents>
   <event type="Health" enabled="true" />
   <event type="GetMessage" enabled="true" /> 
  </supportedEvents>
</nds.plugins.ipaws>
  7. Optionally, configure the value of the 
    alertCancelOffsetInMin
     attribute. The IPAWS plug-in determines when to send an alert termination or cancel message to the IPAWS FEMA server based on the value of the 
    alertCancelOffsetInMin
     attribute. An alert termination or cancel message is sent only when the time difference between the alert expiration time set during alert creation and the actual alert termination time is greater than the 
    alertCancelOffsetInMin
     value. If the alert ends after the specified end time for the alert, or the difference between the alert expiration time set during alert creation and the actual alert termination time is less than the 
    alertCancelOffsetInMin
     value, no alert termination or cancel message is sent.
    The value for the 
    alertCancelOffsetInMin
     attribute must be the same for both devices.
  8. Optionally, configure the value of the 
    certExpirationReminderInDays
     attribute. The default is 40 days. When the certificate expiration date is less than or equal to the configured number of days, a warning message is logged in the Event Viewer before every alert publish. The message contains the expiration date of the certificate and the number of remaining days the certificate is valid.
    The value for the 
    certExpirationReminderInDays
     attribute must be the same for both devices.
  9. Return to the 
    NDS
     console and paste the file contents in the 
    Value
     field.
  10. Click 
    Save
    .
  11. Restart the 
    NDS
     processes.
    For detailed information, see Restart the NDS processes.
