Add a Client Network

Add a client network to enable the management console to monitor the performance of all application servers across a client network. The client network is not assigned to a particular application server.

To quickly and easily import all of your client networks, import network definitions from a CSV file.

To manually add a client network,

Follow these steps:

1. Click the Administration page.
2. Click Data Monitoring, Networks in the Show Me menu.
3. (Optional) Choose the domain where you want to create the client network.
4. Under the Show Me menu, click to add an IPv4 client network.
5. Complete the fields in the Network Properties and click OK.

   For information about network properties, click Help.

6. Resolve any overlap between the definitions you imported from the CSV file and the existing network definitions in the management console. Any overlap is highlighted:

   Red

   Indicates the subnet definition matches a subnet definition that is already defined. Click the red X () to delete the network or modify its subnet definition.

   You cannot replace an existing subnet definition. For example, if an 11.2.0.0/16 network with 256 client regions is already defined, you cannot import an 11.2.3.0/24 client network.

   Yellow

   Indicates the subnet definition overlaps with an existing, broader subnet definition. If you no longer need the broader subnet definition, remove it after you complete the import.

   The management console imports network definitions that overlap each other; however, the management console always reports client activity in the more specific network. For example, if you import a /26 network that overlaps with a /24 network, the management console reports matching client traffic in the /26 network.

   Green

   Indicates the subnet definition overlaps with an existing, narrower subnet definition. If you no longer need the need the narrower subnet definition, remove it after you complete the import.

   The management console imports network definitions that overlap each other, however, the management console always reports client activity in the more specific network. For example, if you import a /26 network that overlaps with a /24 network, the management console reports matching client traffic in the /26 network.

7. Click OK.
8. Click the link to synchronize monitoring devices with the current client network, server subnet, and application definitions on the management console.

   Monitoring devices temporarily stop monitoring application performance during synchronization. To minimize interruptions to monitoring, complete all of your changes before synchronizing monitoring devices.
