Hi Dojo,
I’m building an application for our PTP solution. How can I get the PTP data from my elements which is available in the mediation layer?
Hi Jens,
Mediation parameters are supported and exposed for protocols using the mediation layer. In your case, every protocol that’s based on the ‘Standard DataMiner PTP Device’ will contain the mediated parameters.
Now you are targeting the mediation layer directly and probably expect to receive results for all elements using a protocol based on the mediated protocol. This is currently not supported by GQI.
Alternatively, mediation through profile definitions is supported. A profile parameter can be linked with multiple protocol parameters. GQI uses this information to fetch data from all associated protocols and can use mediation snippets when data needs to be transformed.
Using the protocol route you indeed need to query every single protocol separately. Through profile definitions you could do this in a single query.
I’ll have a look what I can do with profile definitions. Thanks!
Hi Sebastiaan, In my query I’m getting the PTP devices table which results in a table containing all PTP elements independent from their protocol. Does this means that I need to query each protocol separately to have PTP mediation parameters?
