Link Monitoring Within an Organization

Use the Servers property page to specify which servers should receive ping messages from your Microsoft Exchange Server computer. The servers must be in your organization but can be in different sites.

The following are suggestions for setting up link monitors.

• When setting up link monitors, pay attention to routing costs and scheduling.
• When setting warning and alert durations, keep in mind the expected durations for each connection. This allows you to determine whether they are working as expected.

Getting to the Servers property page

1. In the Administrator window, choose Monitors.
2. Double-click the link monitor you want to update.
3. Select the Servers tab.
