3.1 Overview
The browser-based Linktropy GUI is the primary configuration interface for the Linktropy WAN
emulator. The GUI is compatible with Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome, and Safari. JavaScript
must be enabled. The GUI is accessible via HTTP or HTTPS.
The Linktropy GUI consists of a Configuration window and the Linktropy Monitor.

The Configuration window contains a set of tabs used to specify the emulation parameters and
device settings. Sections 4 through 8 of this
User’s Guide
describe each of the individual tabs.
The top portion of the Configuration window also includes the Status Box, Emulation On/Off
button, and Message Bar. These elements remain visible across the various tabs.
Each input field is checked for validity when modified. Valid changes are displayed in bold. Invalid
changes are noted with a red box around the field. Additional checks are performed when the
user attempts to apply the changes, and any errors are marked with a red box at that time.
