Administration Console
Window-by-window reference for the Desktop Console: how to navigate it, what each settings page does, and the tools it puts on the node menu.
In this chapter
- NavigationHow the console is laid out — the two navigation layouts, the five main sections, the Home screen, and the Atlas Tree panel with its search and ordering options.
- Options: GeneralGeneral program options - server and Web Access ports, encryption and certificates, error reporting, the event database, and update notifications.
- Options: MonitoringMonitoring options - the NetCrunch node address and how it is chosen, discovery defaults, and the settings that prevent false DOWN alerts.
- Options: NotificationNotification options - the alert window, the SMTP servers used for email, and the redundant server list that takes over when one fails.
- Working with GridsNodes, Monitors, Active Alerts and Alert History are the same grid with different data in it. Columns, filtering, grouping and CSV export work identically in all of them, in both consoles.
