User’s Guide – version 1.6 NetWatch
14
NetWatch uses the MySQL database to store configuration and historical
information. This is the largest part of NetWatch, so you may wish to install it on
a drive other then your system drive. To do this select "custom" from the set-up
type screen. Then choose "MySQL" and change the destination drive/directory.
When the installation completes NetWatch will be successfully installed and can
be used by accessing the User Interface.
Accessing the User Interface
After NetWatch is installed and running you can access the user interface of
NetWatch by pointing a web browser to the machine running NetWatch. If you chose
a port other than port 80 during installation you must specify it in the URL, e.g. to
access NetWatch running on port 8080 on the local machine, go to:
http://127.0.0.1:8080/
Once NetWatch is successfully installed, NetWatch and all its related components are
