10.1.6 Activity Monitor
What do you need it
for?
The Activity Monitor enables Windows users to monitor the activities of X4000 .
Important information about the status of physical interfaces (e.g. ISDN line)
and virtual interfaces (e.g. WAN partner) is easily obtained with ONE tool. A
permanent overview of the utilization of X4000 ’s interfaces is possible.
How does it work? A Status Demon collects information on X4000 and transfers it in the form of
UDP packets to the broadcast address of the LAN (default setting) or to an
explicitly entered IP address. One packet is sent per X4000 interface and time
interval, which can be adjusted individually to values from 1 - 60 seconds. All
physical interfaces and up to 100 virtual interfaces can be monitored, provided
the packet size of approx. 4000 bytes is not exceeded. A Windows application
on your PC receives the packets and displays the information received in
various forms. This application is obtainable with BRICKware Release 5.1.1
and higher.
Activate the Activity Monitor as follows:
■
Appropriately configure the X4000 (s) to be monitored.
■
Start and use the Windows application on your PC (see BRICKware for
Windows ).
