Monitor Web Console - Novell GROUPWISE 8 - ADMINISTRATION Administration Manual

Figure 62-2
To create the Monitor Agent Web console display, your Web server communicates directly with the
Monitor Agent to obtain agent status information. You must be behind your firewall to use the
Monitor Agent Web console. Because the Linux Monitor Agent does not have a server console, you
use the Monitor Agent Web console in its place on Linux.
The Monitor Agent Web console is divided into the Agent Groups window on the left and the Agent
Status window on the right. Using the Agents Groups window, you can create and manage agent
groups the same as you can at the Monitor Agent server console.
Several Monitor features are available at the Monitor Agent Web console that are not available at
the Monitor Agent server console or the Monitor Web console. These are summarized in
Chapter 66, "Comparing the Monitor Consoles," on page

The Monitor Web console is also platform-independent and can be viewed at the following URL:

Figure 62-3
To create the Monitor Web console display, your Web server communicates with the Monitor
Application (a component of your Web server), which then communicates with the Monitor Agent
to obtain agent status information. This enables the Monitor Web console to be available outside
your firewall, while the Monitor Agent Web console can be used only inside your firewall.
