The Web Performance Monitor extends the functionality of the Microsoft Windows Performance Monitor to the Web. It is a data collecting and graphing utility designed specifically for the WhatsUp Gold web interface that graphs and displays real-time information on user-specified SNMP and WMI performance counters. It can be used for a quick inspection of a specific network device.
The graphs can be saved to the database and displayed on dashboard views using the Split Second Graph - Performance Monitor dashboard report or on the Web Performance Monitor tool. Multiple SNMP and WMI counters can be displayed on a single graph, and the color and scale of each graphed item can be individually configured.
Graphs created with the Web Performance Monitor are saved on a per-user account basis, meaning, graphs are only accessible by the user account that created and saved them.
