"Favorites": Keep a list of favorite peer-to-peer or Gateway-managed connections in
this tab.
"Cycling Monitor Hosts": Continuously monitor peer-to-peer or Gateway-managed
connections in this tab. Create a list of Host computers to monitor in a view-only mode by
cycling through the connections to each Host.
NOTE: Windows Firewall may prevent some Host computers from appearing in the
Master window. By default, Host automatically adds the Host service to the list of
Windows Firewall exceptions, but if this is turned off, then you may need to add the Host
application (along with appropriate transport and port, e.g. UDP 1505 and/or TCP 1505)
as an exception to Windows Firewall on that Host computer.
In addition to the tabs, the following additional features are available through the Master
window:
Connecting to computers running VNC server (e.g. Mac, Linux). See “VNC Hosts”.
Menus for selecting features. See “Menu options”.
Default Master window settings. See “Master Settings”.
Host status icons
Each Host computer that is listed in any of the tabs of the Master window has a
workstation icon associated with it. The connection status and availability of the Host
computers is indicated by the color of the icon.
