The LogLogic Web Services Development Kit for .NET (aka ".NET DevKit") can be downloaded from the Google Code Project Hosting website.

Required Software

The following software is required to use the .NET DevKit:

• Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 or higher
• Microsoft .Net Framework 2.0 or higher

.NET Client Samples Overview

The .NET DevKit is console type application with source codes that demonstrates typical appliance integration capabilities.
The .Net sample solution with code samples can be found in the DevKit under \llapi-dotnet-4.4\LLexample.sln. Using of the following LogLogic Web Services has been implemented in ".NET DevKit" sample project:

1. Admin Services
1.1 Alert Rules
1.2 Device
1.3 Message Routing
1.4. Search Filter
1.5. User Account Management
2. Report and Search Services

Grant Web Services Access

All LogLogic Web Service APIs require authentication with the appliance using a valid User Account on the appliance. To enable a User Account to connect using Web Services, you must set Web Services the user on the LogLogic appliance.

1. Log on to the LogLogic appliance with administrator privileges.
2. In the navigation menu, click Administration > Manage Users.
3. Click the "admin" user to view/edit details.
4. Select the "Allow this user account to connect to the Appliance via Web Services" checkbox to grant Web Service access for the "admin" user.
5. Click the Update button to save the changes

Set Up Your Environment

You can run the sample console application as-is or you can make modifications to suit your needs. Note that you may want to make a copy backup of the sample console application source files before making changes. You will need to add/modify Web References to LogLogic Web Services (see above). Also you may simplify your way to use LogLogic Web Services by presetting login/password of the User Account and your appliance IP used for the Web Service connections at \llapi-dotnet-4.4\authentication\Program.cs.

Running the Samples

To run sample project you may build it from solution or you may run compiled version from \llapi-dotnet-4.4\authentication\bin\Debug\authentication.exe.
