Application Status

The Application Status displays details about a selected application, such as: operator name, last query date, local identification number, etc. It is also used to verify if EntraPass applications are connected to the server.

1 - In the Status window, select the Application  button. The Application status window appears.

•   A scrolling list contains all applications listed together or individually. You can select All connections, or a specific gateway and view the details of the connection for the selected application(s).

2 - Click the “+”  sign to see detailed information about an application.

•   A Red  circle indicates that the EntraPass application is not connected to the server

•   A Green  circle indicates that the EntraPass application is connected to the server.

•   Protocol —Identifies the protocol (language) used to communicate with the server. The protocol is used to inform the system on how the information is shared between computers. Local identification —Identifies the label of the application on the network. This name is used by the server to identify your application.

•   Network identification —Provides the IP address of the application on the network or NetBEUI name.

•  Operator name—Displays the name of the operator currently logged on this application. The operator name is used for many purposes, such as to identify who performed a modification to a card, who acknowledged an alarm, etc. For information on modifying the operator name, see Operators Definition.

•   Last query date —Displays the time the application last polled the server. The server and application exchange information on a regular basis.

•   Connected date —Displays the date and time at which this application started its connection with the server. This date will be used to generate an event and kept in archives.

•   Transactions —Displays the number of requests performed by the application (number of exchanges with the server), i.e. report queries, for example.

•   Errors —Displays the amount of errors encountered by the application. This field will reset when the application is shutdown.

•   Messages/Alarms buffered  (0/1)

•   0:  the number of messages/alarms buffered for this application on the server when the application is off-line (not in communication). This number will reset to “0” when the application connects to the server and messages are sent.

•   1:  the number of messages/alarms that were sent to this application since the Server is operational. If the Server is shutdown, this number will reset.

Note: The   server holds a maximum of 100,000 messages and 100,000 alarms per workstation (default: 5,000) in the buffer. You can modify these settings through the Workstation Definition menu. You can also specify if newer or older events should be buffered. Events will be buffered only when the workstation is off-line (not connected to the server); and when the fields “Apply operator parameters for messages” and “Apply operator parameters for alarms” are not selected (for more information, see Application Configuration ).
