Vz:Doc:IpControl
From M1Research
IP Control protocol is simplest way for VZ control.
By default VZ uses 8001 IP port for that service. To connect to this port and send commands you need a telnet client program. Find appropriate "telnet" program for operating. "putty" is nice free program.
Commands
Each command sent to VZ has javascript-like structure
tree.function.<function_id>.<parameter_name>=<value>
NOTE! Tune your telnet program for UTF-8 characters.
