Web Desktop

Top  Previous  Next

AggreGate Web Desktop is a web-interface that gives remote control capabilities to AggreGate Server. It provides the same functionality as desktop AggreGate Client, with the following exceptions:

Web Desktop is used to control a single instance of AggreGate Server only, while desktop AggreGate Client may access several servers at once
Web Desktop has no Report Editor
Web Desktop has no GUI Builder

Otherwise, Web Desktop provides full configuration, control and monitoring functionality for AggreGate Server, all its resources (alerts, user accounts, trackers, etc.) and all connected devices.

Currently, the Web Desktop is in BETA-testing stage. The current Web Desktop version will not let you access several vital options.

To access AggreGate Server in a production environment, please use AggreGate Client desktop application.

Embedded Web Server

Since Web Desktop is an AJAX-based Rich Internet Application (an application that can be accessed using a standard web browser) it needs a web server to run. This web server is built into the AggreGate Server and tightly integrated with its functions. It starts automatically each time the AggreGate Server is launched and shuts down when the AggreGate Server is stopped.

Check Web Applications section of AggreGate Server Global Configuration to find out details of embedded web server configuration.
