5 Diagnosis

The LANmonitor includes a monitoring tool with which you can view the most

important information on the status of your routers on your monitor at any

time under Windows operating systems—of all of the LANCOM routers in the

network.

Many of the internal messages generated by the devices are converted to

plain text, thereby helping you to troubleshoot.

You can also use LANmonitor to monitor the traffic on the router's various

interfaces to collect important information on the settings you can use to opti-

mize data traffic.

In additio n to the devi ce statist ics that can also be rea d out during a Telnet or

terminal session or using WEBconfig, a variety of other useful functions are

also available in the LANmonitor, such as the enabling of an additional charge

limit.

With LANmonitor you can only monitor those devices that you can

access via IP (local or remote). With this program you cannot access a

router via the serial interface.

Under View / Show Details you can activate and deactivate the following

display options:

System information

Many important details on the status of the LANCOM are not dis-

played until the display of the system information is activated. These

include, for example, the ports and the charge management.There-

fore, we recommend that interested users activate the display of the

system information.
