Configuring monitor functions
Introduction
As soon as the new check wizard is triggered, you must select the
required monitor function from the extensive list of built-in functions
included in GFI Network Server Monitor. This chapter explains how to
configure each built-in function as well as how to create custom
monitor functions using VB Scripts. GFI Network Server Monitor
groups monitor functions according to their respective role.
Network/Internet monitor functions
This group contains functions that are used to monitor
Network/Internet protocols and services.
HTTP/HTTPs function
GFI Network Server Monitor can check for the availability of HTTP and
HTTPs sites, through specified ports.
GFI Network Server Monitor can be configured to go through a proxy
server and to pass access credentials when authentication is required.
These credentials can be specified as part of the GFI Network Server
Monitor Proxy Server parameters, which are configured from the
‘General Options’ node. For more information on proxy server
parameters, please refer to the ‘Proxy Server settings’ section in the
‘General Options’ chapter.
