Figure 6-37. Connected Users

Figure 6-37 displays the B050-000 activity. From left to right: the connected user(s), IP address (from which host the user
comes from) and activity status are displayed. “RC” indicates that the Remote Console is open. If the Remote Console is
opened in “exclusive mode” the term “(exclusive)” is added. For more information about this option see the Section called
Remote Console Control Bar in Chapter 5. To display the user activity the last column is used. It contains either the term
“active” for an active user or the according idle time for an inactive user.

Event Log

Figure 6-38 displays the Event Log list. It includes the events that are kept by the B050-000 extended by the event date, a
