WhatsUp Gold Web Display


After logging on to the WhatsUp Gold web site, you can use the following web pages (depending on your permissions): Top View page, Map View pages, Device View pages, Summary View pages, and the Activity Log. This section briefly describes the views available from a web browser. Refer to the WhatsUp Gold web monitor's help system for detailed information.

Top View. The Top View page is displayed after you log on. It lists each active network map by map title. (The title is set in Map Properties.)

You can click a map title to display the map page for that network.

Map View. Click a map name in the Top View to display the Map View. There are two formats for displaying maps in a web browser: Graphical maps, which use the same icons and colors as maps on the console; or a Text listing of devices in a map. To view the Graphical maps, select Enable Graphical Maps in the Web Server properties, General dialog box.

The Map View will show any alerts that occur for devices in the map and will play an audible alarm (if your computer has a sound card). You can click Acknowledge to acknowledge the alert and turn off an alarm.

Text Listing view of a map. In this example, Enable Graphical Maps was NOT selected from Configure->Web Server->General.

Graphical maps view. In this example, Enable Graphical Maps WAS selected from Configure->Web Server->General.

Device View. Click any device in the list to show its Device View. The Device View lists the host name, IP address, and polling statistics for the device. The polling statistics are the same as those displayed in the Statistics Window in the WhatsUp Gold application.

Summary View. The Summary View lists all devices in the selected network map and shows the polling statistics for each device.

Detail View. The Detail View shows a listing (by map title) of the network maps that are open on the WhatsUp Gold console (the system on which the WhatsUp Gold application is installed); these can be maps that were open on the console when you accessed the server, or maps that you have loaded since you started monitoring WhatsUp Gold from the web interface.

Log View. You can click the Log View button to view the Activity Log page. The Activity Log page shows all activities that have been logged for the devices in a network map.

To set the default device and service state colors in the web view, from the Configure menu, you select Web Server and click Color Settings. Note that you can select custom colors for these items.
