Reviewing network resource default values

Fathom provides various default values for system, network, file, database, and OpenEdge server resources. You see these default values when you create a resource monitor and define its monitoring plan.

If the default values are acceptable to you, you can maintain them for use with the resource monitors you create. If, however, you want to change the default values, you can do so as follows:

Changing default values does not affect any resource monitor already created.

To display default values for network resources:

  1. Click Resources from the menu bar.
  2. Click Resource Monitor Defaults. The Resource Monitor Defaults page appears.
  3. Click Network Resource Defaults. The Network Resource Defaults page appears:
  4. Review the default values defined for TCP ports, UDP ports, ICMP, and HTTP monitors. Values set at this resource level display as default values when you create an individual resource's monitoring plan and rule definitions.

  5. Change the default values, as necessary, and click Submit.
  6. The new defaults will be in place when you create a new network resource. If, when you create the new resource, the default values are still not what you want, you can change the values of the individual resource at that time to suit your own needs.

    Note that you can revert back to the original Fathom-supplied default values at any time by selecting Restore Fathom Defaults.
