Plain Text Interpretation of a Network Problem

A textual interpretation of a network problem is a useful starting point or may provide enough information for you to identify and solve a problem.

Network Supervisor provides this information with its What’s Wrong Dialog Box, shown in Figure 2.

The language used in the What’s Wrong Dialog Box is non-technical, making the definitions easy to understand.

Detailed Monitoring Information

As an alternative, a more detailed view of how a network device or link is being monitored is available.

Network Supervisor gives you this type of information by letting you see the embedded devices, ports and monitors on each device. It does this through an easy-to-use Windows Explorer-style interface.
