How-To: Monitoring via Web Pages

Introduction

This How-To describes how to do monitoring via web pages.

Access

Some web pages are only accessible on the GSI campus. Several options exist to access those pages outside GSI.

• remote login such as 'Citrix'
• ssh tunnel with SOCKS proxy (try 'ssh -D 9999 user@lx-pool.gsi.de' and configure browser to SOCKS port 9999)
• ssh network tunnel

Some pages require credentials.
