Monitoring with Riverbed Steelhead › Manage a Monitoring Device › Edit a Monitor Feed

Edit a Monitor Feed

To assign a particular domain to a monitoring device, edit the monitor feed. By default, a new monitor feed is assigned to the Default Domain.

The management console names a monitor feed based upon its packet source:

IP address Physical Riverbed or IP address Virtual Riverbed

Indicates that the monitor feed receives Steelhead-optimized packets from the WAN network segment. For example, a monitor NIC with IP 1.1.6.44 and a Steelhead Physical In-Path configuration is named 1.1.6.44 Physical Riverbed.

IP address Packets

Indicates that the monitor feed receives unoptimized packets from the Server network segment. For example, a monitor NIC with IP 1.1.5.43 is named 1.1.5.43 Packets.

IP address Client Segment

Indicates that the monitor feed receives unoptimized packets from the Client network segment. For example, a monitor NIC with IP 1.1.6.44 is named 1.1.6.44 Client Segment.

1. Click the Administration page.
