Server Dashboard
The server dashboard allows monitoring of server health, indicating the status of all ASTPP services with green and red flags for active and inactive states, respectively. Additionally, real-time tracking of CPU usage, memory usage, disk space, system load, and I/O operations is available on this server dashboard.
To access data on the server dashboard, the administrator must first add server details in the "Server & Services" section. This can be done by clicking on the "Add Server" button, which will lead to the server & services (Services -> Servers & Services) configuration. Also through the menu provided in info , the administrator can input server details into the designated "Server & Services" section.

Adding a server & services
Fields | Description |
---|---|
SERVER ALIAS | Server Alias refers to a user-friendly name or label assigned to a server for easier identification and management for Admin. |
SERVER IP | Admin must provide the server IP address to set up monitoring for the respective server and services. |
SERVER HOSTNAME | In this section, the admin is required to input the server's hostname, which should correspond to the server configured in the server IP field. The hostname can be obtained by using the "hostname" command in the server console. |
SERVICES | The admin must choose the services for which they want to display status using green and red buttons to indicate the up and down status of various services and components on their respective servers. |
Important
In the "Servers & Services" section, you can add multiple servers along with selecting the available services. ASTPP will then monitor all the different data available in the server & services dashboard for each server added to the list.
All the available data in the server dashboard such like below:
Fields | Description |
---|---|
UPTIME | Uptime refers to the duration of time a server remains operational and available without experiencing any interruptions or downtime. |
CPU USAGE | CPU usage indicates the percentage of the central processing unit's capacity being utilized to handle tasks and processes on a computer or server. |
MEMORY USAGE | Memory usage represents the proportion of RAM (Random Access Memory) being utilized by active processes and applications on a computer or server. |
DISK SPACE | Disk space refers to the amount of storage capacity available on a hard disk drive or storage device to store data and files. |
CPU CORES | CPU cores denote the individual processing units within a central processing unit that execute instructions in a computer or server. |
MEMORY | Memory, also known as RAM (Random Access Memory), stores data and instructions that the computer's CPU can quickly access while running programs. |
SWAP | Swap in a server is a dedicated space on the server's storage device that serves as virtual memory. It allows the server to use a portion of the hard drive as an extension of the RAM (Random Access Memory) when the physical RAM is fully occupied, providing additional memory capacity to handle more data and processes. |
SYSTEM LOAD | System load represents the measure of the computing resources being utilized by the processes running on a server at any given time. Admin can monitor the system load for 1 minute, 5 minutes, or 15 minutes based on their selection. |
I/O OPERATIONS | In servers, I/O Operations refer to the input and output data transfers between the server's storage devices and its main memory or connected peripheral devices, such as disks, network interfaces, or other hardware components. |
Important
In the screenshot below, the admin has added multiple servers for demo purpose, selecting different services, as it is a cluster server with distinct components available on each server. In this ASTPP cluster, the web portal with SBC(SIP-Proxy) is hosted on a separate server, both database resides on separate servers, and the cluster includes two Freeswitch instances—Freeswitch1 and Freeswitch2—each on its own dedicated server. Clicking on the arrow allows the admin to access all available data for monitoring and verification directly through the web portal, specific to the node or server within their ASTPP cluster.
