Description

File name

Description

Devaddr.jsp

Version 6.01 and lower: Shows a list of the devices to which a static address (virtual IP address) has been assigned, sorted by address.

In version 6.50 and higher, this feature is built into the Mobility console (Client Settings—>Devices—>Static Address Filter—>Columns).

Dev_cxstatus.jsp

Allows programmatic access to the connection status of a given device. A server-side monitoring agent can make an HTTP call to this page and retrieve a device's current connection state, without any HTML wrapped around it. See comments in the file for more information.

Find_device.jsp

Will search for a connected device by device name; if it is found, it will show the device's virtual IP address. This page does not require an authenticated session.

Opr_cxlist.jsp

Provides a read-only list of the currently connected clients, without links to the rest of the Mobility console. Useful for providing operators access to just the connection list.

Mobility_jsp.zip

Zip file containing the JSP files above; right-click to save the file on your local drive.


Instructions for installing and using extensions:

  1. Copy the JSP file(s) to the following Mobility server folder:

    <path>\NetMotion Server\webui\webapps\ROOT\

    By default the path is:

    \Program Files\NetMotion Server\webui\webapps\ROOT\

  2. Open the Mobility console and replace the file name in the url with the name of the JSP extension page you want to see. To see a list of virtual IP addresses, for example, change this URL...

    http://10.1.2.120:8080/status.jsp

    ... so that it looks like this:

    http://10.1.2.120:8080/devaddr.jsp
