The Command Centre Cloud service enables the server to communicate with the Gallagher API Gateway, allowing REST clients such as AccessNow to connect to and interact with the Command Centre system remotely and securely. To enable Command Centre Cloud, follow the steps below.
If you are using Command Centre Cloud for other Gallagher services, it is already enabled. Note that it needs to be enabled only once for all cloud services. Only one cloud service can exist per server.
1
Open Command Centre Config Client
2
Check Whether Command Centre Cloud Is Already Enabled
If you are using Command Centre Cloud for other Gallagher services, it is already enabled. Note that it needs to be enabled only once for all cloud services. Only one cloud service can exist per server.
If it is active, you do not need to activate it again. Move to the next step of the AccessNow integration configuration: Command Centre – AccessNow Operator.
3
Create the Command Centre Cloud Service
If you do not already have the cloud service enabled, follow these steps.
Note that only one cloud service can exist per server.
In the Services & Workstations window, right-click and select New > Command Centre Cloud. The service Properties window opens.
In the General tab, name the service, for example, Command Centre Cloud.
4
Enable API Gateway
Go to the Configuration tab. Ensure the Enable Gallagher API Gateway option is ticked to allow communication through the cloud.
5
Select Your API Gateway Region
Still in the Configuration tab, make sure Command Centre Cloud is selected in the top Region drop-down list. Then select the appropriate region, either Australia or United States, in the other Region list. Choose the region based on your server's location. The region determines which cloud gateway your server communicates with.
6
Verify That the Service Is Active
After configuration, go to the Status and Override tab and confirm the status of Receive is Online.
No other tabs or settings need to be configured unless your site uses a proxy server, which requires additional network configuration.
