Vantage Report
Vantage Report collects log entries and traffic statistics from ZyXEL devices and then generates graphical and
tabular reports about network performance and events.
Install Vantage Report on the Vantage Report server (B). Then, use the web configurator (A) to configure it.
(The web configurator can run on a remote computer or on the Vantage Report server.) Finally, configure the
ZyXEL devices (C) to send their log entries and traffic statistics to the Vantage Report Server. The Vantage
Report server collects this information and builds statistical reports about the network. You and others can
look at these reports any time in the web configurator or in regular e-mail messages.
Overview
1 Preparation - Make sure the Vantage Report server meets the minimum requirements, and get the
Vantage Report server ready for installation.
2 Installation - Install Vantage Report on the Vantage Report server.
3 Login - Use the web configurator to access the Vantage Report server.
4 E-mail Setup - Set up the administrator e-mail address and SMTP mail server settings in Vantage Report,
and test the SMTP settings.
5 Registration - When you install Vantage Report, you get the standard version. You do not have to register
Vantage Report unless you want to get the trial version or upgrade to the professional version. (See
section 5 for more information about versions.)
6 Device Setup - Set up the ZyXEL devices, and add them in the Vantage Report server.

1 Preparation
Check these things before you install Vantage Report.
1.1 Check Minimum Requirements
If your Vantage Report server does not meet the minimum requirements, you should upgrade it or use a
different server that does meet the minimum requirements.
1.2 Save Device List (Vantage Report v2.2 only)
If you currently use Vantage Report v2.2, you should save the list of devices in Vantage Report before you
uninstall it. Then, in section 6.2, you can load this file, instead of adding each device manually to Vantage
Report.
Note: You cannot load this file in section 6.2 if it adds more devices than the Vantage Report version
and license allows. See section 5 for more details.
1 On the included CD, click Documents > Upgrade Notes.
2 Follow the directions to copy the migration folder (and all its contents) from the included CD to the
Vantage Report v2.2 installation directory (for example, C:\Program Files\ZyXEL\Vantage Report).
3 Start Vantage Report v2.2, if it is not already running.
4 In the migration folder in the Vantage Report v2.2 installation directory, run exportDeviceList.bat. This
program creates a file called Devices.xml in the same folder.
5 Copy Devices.xml to a different folder, where it will not be deleted when you uninstall Vantage Report v2.2
in section 1.3.

212.100.9.161:9090/vrpt.
Make sure packets on TCP port 3316, UDP port 514, and the port number you
specified during installation are forwarded to the Vantage Report server,
especially if the Vantage Report server runs behind a NAT or firewall.
Make sure the Vantage Report server is running.
• The Vantage Report server runs as a service. Follow the directions in section
1.4 to check it.
• Make sure the following system variables are defined.

Vantage Report
Vantage Report sammelt Log-Einträge und Datenverkehrsstatistiken von ZyXEL-Geräten und generiert dann
grafische und tabellarische Berichte über Netzwerkleistung und Ereignisse.
Installieren Sie Vantage Report auf dem Vantage Report-Server (B). Konfigurieren Sie ihn dann mit dem Web-
Konfigurator (A). (Der Web-Konfigurator kann auf einem Remote-Computer oder auf dem Vantage Report-
Server laufen.) Konfigurieren Sie abschließend die ZyXEL-Geräte (C) so, dass sie ihre Log-Einträge und
Datenverkehrsstatistiken an den Vantage Report-Server senden. Der Vantage Report-Server sammelt diese
Daten und erzeugt dann statistische Berichte über das Netzwerk. Diese Berichte können dann von jedem
jederzeit im Web-Konfigurator eingesehen oder als E-Mail versendet werden.
