NetWatcher v2.9  
Deploy NetWatcher
It is easy to deploy NetWatcher on LAN, Internet or dial-up Network, as long as TCP/IP protocol is setup. You can set up one or more Server with many Clients.

NetWatcher is a kind of network supervision and using TCP/IP protocol, so all network addressing and communication must comply with TCP/IP standard. That is basically all computers can reach either in same network segment or within network reachable routing tables.

  For all NetWatcher Clients on Local Area Network, NetWatcher Server can automatically detect them and add them to supervision list;

  For all Clients on dial-up or Internet Network, you have to add them manually at NetWatcher Monitor main menu Actions->Add Client;

  If NetWatcher Monitor can not detect Clients automatically, you have to add them one by one manually at NetWatcher Monitor main menu Actions->Add Client.

Note: You must install NetWatcher Client first on the computers which you want to supervise and control, and then NetWatcher Server can detect and supervise them.

  Deployment of NetWatcher

NetWatcher Server and Client could be anywhere in a network environment. NetWatcher Monitor and Log Server have same network deployment.



  VPN or RAS Technology Usage

As we mentioned, NetWatcher is a kind of network supervision and using TCP/IP protocol; all computers could reach either in same network segment or within network reachable routing tables. But in some cases, computers are not TCP/IP reachable. For example, when NetWatcher Server is located outside LAN or Firewall, and we want to supervise the Client inside LAN, it’s impossible to build the TCP/IP routing. However, we can use other technologies to achieve network TCP connection. VPN or RAS is an optional technology. Please consult VPN or RAS vendors for more information. The secondary suggestion is to use NetWatcher Monitor Email Report feature, assign an email address for NetWatcher Client and receive periodical email report on screen capture, URL and program access of supervised computer.

When NetWatcher Server is located in LAN, it can supervise any Clients anywhere on network.
