Using IxServer
Tools
The Tools menu provides access to server tools that can be used to configure performance, run diagnostic tests, set the security feature, and configure the restricted access and ownership of ports by users and groups of users. These tools are accessed by selecting Tools in the menu bar.
Note: Windows Performance Monitor is a separate system monitoring application that is integrated into IxServer but is not accessible through the Tools menu. See Performance Monitoring.
There are four options in the Tools menu. These are mentioned in the following list:
- Options: Allows to set IxServer performance, display, and logging characteristics. The Options configuration parameters are described in Options.
- Diagnostics: Allows to run tests on the chassis and view IxServer connection statistics. Diagnostics options are described in Diagnostics.
- Secured Mode: Allows to set authentication requirements for wanting to connect to IxServer. Secured Mode is described in Secured Mode. If Secured Mode is active, Managed Mode is not accessible (disabled).
- Managed Mode: Allows to access the ports that you can see, own, modify, and use. You can configure user ownership of ports and create groups of users with common restrictions or access. See Managed Mode. If Secured Mode is active, Managed Mode is not accessible (disabled).
