Select an application from the list. The following information is displayed:
•
Clients: Information about clients connected to this application instance, including the total number of clients
who connected to the application instance since it started, active clients, and the number of users whose
attempts to connect to the application instance were rejected. (To determine why connections may have failed,
look at the Live Log panel under View Applications.)
•
Lifespan: The length of time the application instance has been running and the date and time it began to run.
•
Messages Per Second: The average number of messages (video frames, audio packets, and command messages)
sent per second.
•
Bytes Per Second: The average number of bytes sent per second for this application instance. The
Administration Console calculates this ratio by determining the total number of bytes received in the most
recent 15 seconds and dividing that value by 15. When the panel first appears, these figures appear as pending
because there is only one data point to start with; figures appear after the panel is open for 15 seconds.
•
Active Connections: The number of users currently connected to the application instance.
•
Bandwidth: The amount of data that the application instance manages, including data sent, data received, and
the combined amount of data traffic.
•
CPU and Memory Usage: The percentage of CPU and memory used by Flash Media Server.

Select and deselect checkboxes to customize the information displayed on the graphs. For example, in the
Bandwidth graph, select Total and deselect In and Out to show only the total amount of bandwidth used.
