sary for monitoring your gateway with the Windows Activity Monitor tool (part of
BRICKware for
Windows).
The
Activity Monitor
enables Windows users to monitor the activities of the
gateway. Important information about the status of physical interfaces (e.g.
ISDN line) and virtual interfaces (e.g. WAN partner) is easily obtained with one
tool. A permanent overview of the utilization of the gateway is possible.
A Status Daemon collects information about the gateway and transfers it in the
form of UDP packets to the broadcast address of the first LAN interface (default
setting) or to an explicitly entered IP address. One packet is sent per time inter-
val, which can be adjusted individually to values from 1 - 60 seconds. Up to 100
physical and virtual interfaces can be monitored, provided the packet size of
4,096 bytes is not exceeded. The Activity Monitor on your PC receives the pack-
ets and can display the information contained in them in various ways according
to configuration.
