Chapter 2 Checking Server Status
Getting Started with RiverMaster
Checking Server Status
RiverMaster’s main interface is designed to quickly show the Aurorean
Virtual Network’s “health” when you start the application. The health
conditions are organized into three categories:
H Problem summary and users logged in
H Aurorean Network Gateway statistics
H Aurorean Policy Server statistics
Problem Summary & Users Logged In
As shown in Figure 8, counters at the top and bottom of the interface track
both error conditions and successful tunnel login attempts. The Problem
Summary counters are updated whenever RiverMaster receives one of three
types of messages:
H Alarms notify you when a significant error occurs with a service
running on a Aurorean Virtual Network system or a general server
problem that is preventing the server from operating normally.
H Alerts occur when an error count threshold has been crossed and an
alarm condition is imminent.
H Problem Notification messages typically indicate an error at the
Aurorean Network Gateway or a remote client connection problem
which Aurorean Client Software’s Prescriber feature diagnosed and
reported. Prescriber is a Aurorean Virtual Network feature which
diagnoses why a tunnel connection failed and attempts to correct the
problem.
