Real-time monitoring
The Microsoft Internet Security and Acceleration (ISA) Server real-time monitoring feature enables you to centrally monitor the ISA Server computer activity.
You can view all the alerts that occurred on the ISA Server computers in the array. This will help you monitor, troubleshoot, and analyze ISA Server performance and activity. You can also view the active client sessions to determine which clients are using the ISA Server to communicate with the Internet.
ISA Server lists client sessions as follows:
| • | Web Proxy sessions indicate the last minute of Web browser activity, even if the client is not currently browsing. |
| • | If a publishing server is currently being published, ISA Server will show it as a Firewall client session. Therefore, some Firewall client sessions may be listed, even if no client is actually connected. |
You can also use ISA Management to stop or start services, such as the Web Proxy service, Firewall service, and scheduled content download service.
For more information, see View alerts, View sessions, Disconnect a client session, and Start a service.
