Avaya Aura® System Manager has an Element Manager for Avaya Device Adapter Snap-in (ADA EM). Select ElementsDevice Adapter from the System Manager menu to access ADA EM. The ADA EM provides statistics and maintenance tools for Avaya Device Adapter Snap-ins installed on all Avaya Breeze® clusters across System Manager.
Before Release 8.1.4, ADA EM could not communicate with Avaya Device Adapter Snap-in installed on Avaya Breeze® clusters in which Management and SecureLink interfaces are isolated, for example, a typical cloud deployment. The limitation occurred because ADA EM runs on System Manager, which only has a Management interface.
From Release 8.1.4, the limitation is removed using a configuration. After setting up the configuration, ADA EM communicates with Avaya Device Adapter Snap-in through a proxy running on the Avaya Breeze® server on the Management interface.
Use the following procedure to set up the configuration:
  1. Navigate to ElementsAvaya BreezeConfigurationAttributes.
  2. To set up the configuration option, do the following:
    • On a cluster level, click the Service Clusters tab, select the appropriate Avaya Breeze® cluster, and select the service as DeviceAdapter.
    • On a global level, click the Service Global tab and select the service as DeviceAdapter.
  3. Navigate to the Secure Link Access section to locate the Route ADA EM request through Mgmt interface feature.
  4. In the Route ADA EM request through Mgmt interface field, in Effective Value, select Yes to enable Device Adapter Element Manger to communicate with Avaya Device Adapter Snap-in on Management interface.
  5. Click Commit.
