65.5.1 Setting Up an External Monitor Domain
Before you can run a gateway accounting report, you must create a specially configured Monitor
domain and select an MTA to transfer accounting data to and from the Monitor Agent. The Monitor
Agent uses an external GroupWise domain as part of this process.

For information about external GroupWise domains, see “
Creating an External Domain

Section 65.4,
“Measuring Agent Performance,” on page 1052
, you can use this same external domain for
collecting agent performance data.

Name the external domain to reflect its role in your GroupWise system.
For example, you could name it ExternalMonitorDomain. It does not matter which domain you
link the external domain to.

In the Outbound Links From box, double-click the domain whose MTA you want the Monitor
Agent to communicate with.

TCP/IP link:
