MonitorWare Echo Reply

Top  Previous  Next

The MonitorWare Echo Reply service is a somewhat unusual service. It by itself does not generate any events.

 

It is the passive counterpart of the MonitorWare Echo Request service. These together are used to detect failing agents. In this services configuration, only the listening port can be specified. This port must be the same to which the Echo Request service tries to connect to.

IP Adress

 

The MonitorWare Echo Reply service can be bound to a specific IP Address. This feature is useful for multihome environments where you want to run different Syslog Servers on different IP Addresses. Please note that the default IP Address 0.0.0.0 means ANY IP Address. You can either use an IPv4, an IPv6 Address or a Hostname that resolves to an IPv4 or IPv6 Address
