Monitoring Console
The Monitoring Console allows IT experts to monitor the state of one or more servers, including the
following:
•
Results of numerous automated tests
•
Log records for hardware, software, and services
For more information on this console, see the HPE ProLiant Easy Connect Monitoring Consoles Guide on
the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website ( http://www.hpe.com/support/EC-MCG ).
Gateway Control Console
The Gateway Control Console provides access to the configuration settings, event logs, and reports
relating to a server firewall and other internet security functions.
Be sure that only IT experts change the firewall and security settings of the console. Incorrect
configuration can lead to a security breach or a temporary failure of the system. Such configuration issues
require remedial action by HPE ProLiant Easy Connect Support to restore normal services.
Hewlett Packard Enterprise monitors and maintains the servers. As a result, many of the Gateway Control
Console settings need never be changed by the end user or IT administrators.
For more information on this console, see the
HPE ProLiant Easy Connect Gateway Console Guide on
the Hewlett Packard Enterprise website ( http://www.hpe.com/support/EC-GCG ).
