Enable IP Domain Monitoring at the Collector

After you define an IP domain in CA Performance Center and data source synchronization has occurred, the IP Domain field is available in the collector Properties dialog. The collectors that you add to a distributed system also have this field. Use this field to associate a selected IP domain with the performance data taken from calls running between monitored endpoints An endpoint is any device where a media stream begins or ends, such as telephone, softphone, telepresence, voice gateway, media device, and video camera..

Follow these steps:

1. Click Administration, Data Collection, Collectors in the navigation bar.

   The Collection Device List opens.

2. Select a collector.
3. Click Edit.

   The Collection Device Properties page opens.

4. Select the appropriate domain from the IP Domain field.
5. Click Save.
6. Repeat steps 2 through 5 for each collector. Each collector creates an association with the same IP domain for all phones and devices that it discovers.
7. Reload the collectors to send them the domain information.

   After you configure the system, the IP domain designation is included for each endpoint where it appears in reports. You can also verify IP domain identity in the Location List or Voice Gateway List.

Note: IP domains are populated with managed items when items are discovered from call traffic. You manually assign IP domains to Location definitions because Locations are not discovered. For more information, see Change Domain Assignments.
