 Enables
Network Administrators to Monitor Network
Sessionwall Central (Sessionwall
Central/Remote Console) Support enables network administrators to monitor and control one
or more stations running Sessionwall. This is achieved by installing Sessionwall agents on
different segments of the network (local and remote), which are controlled by a central
station from which the administrator can view and generate reports based on the
consolidated information collected by the agents.
The Central/Remote Console software serves as the basis for
several services. The Central/Remote Console:
 | Allows a single administrator to monitor and manage
multiple and local remote Sessionwall’s. Using this capability, the administrator
sees alerts on the console and has the ability to remotely control specific Sessionwall
stations as if they were local. |
|
| Allows a system administrator to manage a remote
Sessionwall station. |
|
| Allows a remote authorized user to review the
specific information they are authorized to see. |
|
The Central/Remote Console Support includes the
following components:
Sessionwall Central
The component which operates on Windows 95, Windows 98
or Windows NT. The Central component receives, sorts and displays alerts generated by one
or more remote Sessionwall agents and allows the administrator to connect to and operate
the Sessionwall agent.
Sessionwall Agents
Agents are components which operate on stations
running Sessionwall R4 software. The SW3 Central Agent includes an agent application that
operates in the background, receives alerts from Sessionwall, sends these alerts to SW3
Central via a remote control utility that authorizes remote access from SW3 Central, and
enables SW3 Central remote control.
System specifications/requirements:
| All components can operate on Windows 95, Windows 98
or Windows NT/2000 systems. |
|
| The communication can be via TCP or UDP protocol.
|
|
| Central–Agent connection relationships can be:
one to many (one Agent can be connected to several Centrals and vice versa) or many to
many (several Centrals can be connected to several Agents and vice versa). |
|
| In order to establish a Central–Agent
connection (i.e. to receive Sessionwall alert messages on the Central from the Agent), the
Central user has to be defined on both the Agent and the Central with the same password.
In order to connect one Central to many Agents, the Central user has to be defined with
the same password on all the Agents. |
|
| The Central can view the alert messages from several
connected Agents simultaneously. |
|
| The Central can connect to and have remote access
and control of several Agents' desktops at the same time. |
|
| The Agent’s desktop can be remotely accessed
only by one Central at a time. |
|
| If the Agent has a user logged on locally, its
desktop cannot be accessed remotely at that moment. |
