IGEL Server Status Test

If the IGEL UMS server is unavailable or down for a longer duration, then users will not be able to access the IGEL Endpoints that are registered with the target IGEL UMS. If the IGEL UMS becomes unavailable more frequently, then, the user experience with the IGEL Endpoints may suffer a setback. To ensure that the IGEL Endpoints can be accessed by the users at all times, it is necessary to maintain the availability of the IGEL UMS round the clock. The IGEL Server Status test helps administrators keep a constant vigil on the availability of the IGEL UMS server.

This test reports the current status of the IGEL UMS. Using this test, administrators can proactively figure out if the IGEL UMS is down.
