For each Zixi Feeder component that has been configured in ZEN Master, you will need to configure the connection of the Zixi Feeder (using its Zixi Feeder UI) to ZEN Master. This will use the configured SSH keys to enable the actual connection, using the configured SSH key.

To connect the Zixi Feeder:

  • In ZEN Master, in the main navigation, click Settings.
  • In the SSH Keys tab, click Download on the relevant SSH Key to download the key to your machine.
  • In the main navigation, click Feeders.
  • Select the relevant Zixi Feeder from the list of existing Feeders.
    • At the bottom of the screen, click the Configuration Help This tab includes your personal connection configuration settings. You will be using these settings to connect the Zixi Feeder (host, username, and remote source port), so you should write them down or keep this browser tab open while you configure the Zixi Feeder.

    . This can either be done manually by entering the configuration settings into the Zixi Feeder UI or automatically using the ZEN Master tab in the Zixi Feeder UI (for v12+ Feeders). For our use case, we will be using the automatic method.

    To connect the Zixi Feeder Automatically (for v12 and above):

    1. Login to the Zixi Feeder UI (it could be a locally installed Zixi Feeder, e.g. http://localhost:4200 or  or a remote Zixi Feeder).
      Go to Settings > SSH Tunnels.
