Connecting the Zixi Receiver (Zixi Receiver UI)

For each Zixi Receiver component that has been configured in ZEN Master, you will need to configure the connection of the Zixi Receiver (using its Zixi Receiver UI) to ZEN Master. This will enable the actual connection, using the configured SSH keys. This can either be done manually by entering the configuration settings into the Zixi Receiver UI or automatically using the ZEN Master tab in the Zixi Receiver UI (for v12+ Receivers). For our use case, we will be using the automatic method.

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

  1. Login to the Zixi Receiver UI (it could be a locally installed Zixi Receiver, e.g. http://localhost:4200 or a remote Zixi Receiver).
    The Zixi Receiver UI opens.
  2. Go to Settings > ZEN Master.
    The ZEN Master login screen is displayed.
  3. In the Account ID field, enter the customer domain of your ZEN Master account (e.g. if you login to ZEN Master at demo.zen.zixi.com then you Account ID is 'demo'.
  4. In the Email field, enter the username for you ZEN Master account.
  5. In the Password field, enter the password for you ZEN Master account.
  6. Click Login.
    A list of Receivers configured in ZEN Master is displayed.
  7. For the Receiver that you are adding, which should currently be in Pending mode, click Select.
    Details about the Receiver are shown in the Status section.
  8. Click Refresh.
    The connection is configured automatically.
  9. Verify that the Status is shown as On.
