How to connect to EcoStruxure IT using Data Center Expert and Gateway in parallel

[EcoStruxureIT]

You can use Data Center Expert and EcoStruxure IT Gateway in parallel to monitor SNMP and NetBotz devices. You connect only the Gateway to EcoStruxure IT.

EcoStruxure IT Expert requires that you connect a Gateway. You cannot connect to IT Expert using DCE.

Note: Dual monitoring Modbus devices is not recommended because it may cause some devices to fail. Some Modbus devices do not support polling from monitoring agents.

EcoStruxure Asset Advisor subscribers

If you subscribe to EcoStruxure Asset Advisor and use DCE to monitor your devices, you must create a second account or disable the connection to EcoStruxure IT on the DCE server during your IT Expert trial.
EcoStruxure IT does not allow DCE to be connected to the same account as an IT Expert trial. 

You will need:

• Data Center Expert server monitoring devices

• EcoStruxure IT Gateway to monitor some or all your SNMP and NetBotz devices in parallel with your DCE server 
  Note: To monitor SNMP and NetBotz devices on the DCE private LAN in the Gateway, the server running the Gateway must have an additional network adapter on the same subnet as the DCE private LAN.

• EcoStruxure IT app for Android or iPhone
