Intel NetStructure Cache Appliance Administrator’s Guide
Accessing monitor pages
The Manager UI uses monitor pages to present performance information on the 
selected appliance and the cluster as a whole. A monitor page is a browser page 
displayed as a result of “clicking” on a page button in the Manager UI. By 
default, the Manager UI starts in monitor mode (as opposed to configure mode), 
which displays Monitor page buttons.
▼ Reaching Monitor pages
1
Open your browser to the Manager UI.
2
Enter the Administrator ID and password. By default, the Administrator ID is 
admin
 and the password is also 
admin
. Intel recommends that the 
administrator change these values when the appliance is initially installed.
    Note
Should you forget your password, contact Customer Service at Intel 
Corporation for assistance. For information on how to contact Intel Customer 
Service, see the Intel
 
NetStructure Cache Appliance Product Support booklet 
that came with your system.
3
Click on a MONITOR tab.
    Note
Some performance displays rely on Java. To use the Monitor pages or any 
other pages in the UI, make sure your browser is set to enable Java and 
JavaScript.
Information displayed on the monitor mode pages fall into two categories: 
information for the selected node in the cluster, and information for the cluster as 
a whole. To view information on a given node, you need to access that node as 
described in Changing the selected node‚ on page 20.
Using the Dashboard page
The Dashboard page provides a concise view of the appliance and of the cluster. 
The page displays all nodes in the cluster by name and tracks essential statistics 
for each node. In the list of nodes, a single node is currently selected. Its name 
appears in black text without underlining, while the rest of the node names appear 
appear as hypertext links.
▼ Reaching the Dashboard page
1
Be sure you are in monitor mode. If not, click the MONITOR tab.
2
Click the Dashboard page button.
    Note
By default, the Dashboard page appears after you log onto Manager UI with 
your Administrator ID and password.
    Node-
specific
information
With the exception of the information on the Dashboard page and the cluster 
information on the Node page, performance information pertains to a single 
node.
