The basic steps for integrating Resonate RFID Reader Management into your asset-tracking solution are outlined below. This guide deals with the first step. Refer to the user guide for information on the remaining steps.
In these steps,
Resonate
refers to Resonate RFID Reader Management, and your application refers to your application or partner's application that processes RFID reads.
Install
Resonate
on one or more Linux machines (nodes).
When you run the
online
Resonate
installer, it downloads
Resonate
containers from Zebra's Artifactory repository and downloads third-party open-source prerequisites as needed.
From a browser, log in to
Resonate
to configure it and eventually to manage your RFID readers.
If required, configure
Resonate
to use your Single Sign-On (SSO) provider (for example, IAM/SSO) for authentication.
Configure
Resonate
to send email alerts to administrator users.
Configure
Resonate
to send alert webhooks (https POST messages) to your IT case management solution.1
Run the Resonate Device Initializer on a Windows machine to initialize the readers that
Resonate
needs to manage, monitor, and configure; this also installs the Resonate Agent on the readers. For automatic device discovery, run the utility onsite and on the same subnet as your RFID readers; for an explicitly specified list of readers, you can run the utility from any Windows machine provided the network access is open2. The Resonate Device Initializer is a single executable without an installer and with no outside dependencies.
Connect business applications that consume RFID tag read data directly to each reader to subscribe to its data streams.
