Packet Trace
AVM Access Server – 3 The AVM Access Server Window 41
The following information is supplied for all connections established
between the AVM Access Server and the remote site, broken down by
user and network:
the total number of connections
the number of direct dial-in connections
the number of VPN connections
the number of incoming connections
the number of outgoing connections
the total connection up-time
the total up-time of all direct dial-in connections
the total up-time of all VPN connections
the total traffic volume
Connections that are still active are not reflected in the statistics. Ac-
tive connections can be monitored in “Connection control” (see the
section “Connection Control” on page 37).
The statistics are ordinarily collated by user and network, but can also
be displayed for each connection individually.
The statistics are displayed using the Microsoft Internet Explorer inside
the Access Server window. The Internet Explorer’s context menu is thus
available by clicking the right mouse button. Context menu commands
can be used to print the use statistics, for example.
Packet Trace
The “Packet Trace” function in the Monitoring View can be used to
identify what packets for which networking protocols are being sent in
the LAN and over ISDN, ADSL and VPN connections. In this way you can
locate the causes of excessive ISDN calls, record the PPP negotiation of
remote users’ connections, and verify the effectiveness of the enabled
spoofing functions.
You can set a number of criteria for a selective packet trace. For exam-
ple, you may choose the protocol layer on which you want to log pack-
ets. By specifying a remote user or network, you can limit the packet
trace to the traffic over the corresponding connection. You may capture
packets through all network adapters, or only a certain one. You may
also specify the maximum size of the packet trace buffer.
