IPCheck Server Monitor - User Manual
Multi Location Monitoring Using Remote Probes
By default all monitoring requests are sent out from the machine you have initially installed the IPCheck software on (called "Local Probe").
To achieve multi location monitoring you can install additional "Remote Probes" on other machines that can reside in your local LAN, in your DMZ, or anywhere in the world, as long as they are reachable via the net. This way you can monitor your network devices from different perspectives.
To create a "Remote Probe" you must install the "IPCheck Probe Service" on the desired machine. Then you must set up a few parameters on the remote machine and the machine your main IPCheck installation runs on. If you use custom sensors make sure to also copy the necessary script files to the remote probe machine!
Note: This feature is not available in the Freeware Edition!
