The Monitoring View provides connection control, monitoring and diag-

also composed of two parts. The monitoring functions are shown in the
tree display on the left.
The object tree in Monitoring View
The display panel on the right contains one or more dialog pages, de-
pending on the function selected in the object tree in the left panel.

3.5 Connection Control and Monitoring
Functions
For WAN administrators it is especially important to be able to super-
vise the AVM Access Server in operation. The Monitoring View provides
numerous functions for this purpose.
It provides detailed information on the server status, current routing ta-
bles and services, physically active connections, user status, cost and
connection statistics, and events. Furthermore, the AVM Access Server
also provides a packet trace function.
Use the commands in the “View” menu to switch between the Configu-
ration and Monitoring Views. The window structure in the Monitoring
View is similar to that in the Configuration View. The object tree in the
left panel allows you to select one of the various monitoring functions.
The right panel displays the results of the given function.
The program functions are explained in detail below.
