Network state
Network status can be used to delay or prevent the execution of Agent Tasks, Jobs and Rules for specific Containers. This can be useful, for example, if you want to assign pending tasks at appropriate times to customers who work in the field or mainly from home and only occasionally have access to the company network via VPN.
In order to be able to work with the network status, appropriate networks must be defined. ACMP Client uses these networks to calculate which network the client belongs to. This means that a Client can access a local (LAN) or an external (Mobile) network. The tasks (Agent Tasks, Jobs and Rules) are then applied based on the network status of a Container:
| Description | |
| LAN
| All Containers located in the internal network continue the tasks to all Clients stored in them. |
| Mobile
| All Containers that are located in the external network (e.g. via the VPN) continue the tasks to all Clients stored in them. |
| All
| All Clients that are in a Container with the network status All are assigned the tasks. |
| None
| If a Container has the status None, no Client is assigned anything. |
You can either change the network status directly via the ribbon bar for the respective Container or you can edit it from the Container properties. You can also edit the network status under the General tab.
