System Information:
– General device information
– Serial port information: for each port, the port’s description, current profile, and
current serial configuration. This is the same information displayed by
choosing Serial Port Management.
– Network statistics: statistics for IP, TCP, UDP, and ICMP
Command-line interface
Several commands can be issued from the command line to monitor devices. For a review
of these commands and what they can provide from a device-monitoring perspective, see
"Monitoring capabilities from the command line" on page 198.
Connectware Manager
In the Connectware Manager interface, monitoring capabilities can be sorted by the server
and the devices managed by the server. The information is available in logs and can be
generated into reports. When available, the reports post linked totals that can be drilled
back to the original devices that make up the activity of the report.
Connectware Manager is well-suited to managing Cellular and ConnectPort X Family
devices and the networks in which the devices reside. Advantages include:
The ability to view an entire network, and multiple networks, at once
Easy to view signal strength, link quality, and alarms
SNMP
Monitoring capabilities of SNMP include managing network performance, gathering
device statistics, and finding and solving network problems. For more information on
using SNMP for device-monitoring purposes, see "Monitoring Capabilities from SNMP"
on page 208.
