Monitoring options

Add Computers Manually

Select "Add computer..." from File menu:

The dialog has two tabs:

  • Basic Options
  • Advanced Options

Basic Options

Add computer that you want to monitor

Parameters:

Remote computer (host or IP):

Enter the network hostname or the IP of the remote computer. When using DHCP on the local network you must enter the computer name.

Nickname:

Enter the name that you want to be displayed to easily identify the remote computer.

Agent’ password:

In this field, enter the same password used when installing the agent.

Connection Type:

Direct Connection

It uses a direct TCP/IP connection between the admin console and the agents. The console acts as a client and the agent as a server. Direct connection works, e.g., if all computers are on the same network or proper routing is configured between subnetworks. The used port (default TCP 4495) must be enabled for communication.

Reverse Connection

It uses a direct TCP/IP connection between the admin console and the agents. The console acts like a server, and the agent as a client. Reverse connection works, e.g., if all computers are on the same network or proper routing is configured between subnetworks. You need to enable "Console Reverse connection Server" in the console. You need to specify console(s) host-name or IP to which agent will connect. The used port (default TCP 444) must be enabled for communication.

Cloud Connection

You can choose to make this computer accessible also via a Cloud connection by selecting "Use Cloud connection" which allows you to monitor the computer over the Internet.

Cloud license is subscription based. Read more about installation to the Cloud.

 

Advanced Options

Configure computer that you want to monitor

Parameters:

TCP Port:

In this field, enter the same port used when installing the agent. The default port is 4495.
