• UPS Status—The Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) feature provides monitoring of the
power source and the battery backup.
• NTP Metrics—The Network Time Protocol (NTP Metrics) feature provides an overview of
the integrity of the NTP time source
For information about monitoring the system status, see the chapter “Using BCM450 System
Metrics” in the BCM450 Administration and Security Guide (NN40160-601).
You can monitor system performance using the following tools:
• Activity Reporter Basic—Generate reports about call activity and voice mail receive statistics.
