Preface

You can monitor and administrate just:store with a web browser. By default just:store is configured for direct connections using the IP address 172.16.x.10. You need the exact IP address to connect to the web administration interface.

Following animation indicates that the user interface is waiting for data. It will disappear as soon as all data has been retrieved.

Network Overview

The network overview shows all physical network interfaces.
