This option allows you to view the currently active computers on your network. The computers are graphically displayed, each with its name, IP address, and settings (DHCP, Static, etc.). You can also view node limit information.
To view the computers
The Active Computers page appears.
If you configured High Availability, both the master and backup appliances are shown. If you configured OfficeMode, the OfficeMode network is shown.
If there are wireless networks, the wireless stations are shown under the network to which they are connected. For information on viewing statistics for these computers, see Viewing Wireless Station Statistics. If a wireless station has been blocked from accessing the Internet through the UTM-1 appliance, the reason why it was blocked is shown in red.
If a network is bridged, the bridge's name appears in parentheses next to the network's name.
If you are exceeding the maximum number of computers allowed by your license, a warning message appears, and the computers over the node limit are marked in red. These computers are still protected, but they are blocked from accessing the Internet through the UTM-1 appliance.

Note: Computers that did not communicate through the firewall are not counted for node limit purposes, even though they are protected by the firewall and appear in the Active Computers table. |

Note: To increase the number of computers allowed by your license, you can upgrade your product. For further information, see Upgrading Your Software Product. |
If Secure HotSpot is enabled for some networks, each computer's HotSpot status is displayed next to it. The possible statuses include:
If Remote Desktop is enabled, a link appears next to each computer, enabling you to access its desktop remotely. For information on using Remote Desktop, see Using Remote Desktop.
Next to each computer, an Add button enables you to add a network object for the computer, or an Edit button enables you to edit an existing network object for the computer. For information on adding and editing network objects, see Adding and Editing Network Objects.
The Node Limit window appears with installed software product and the number of nodes used.
