Environment

ADA 11.0Window 2012 R2

Cause

This problem can be occurred due to invalid NIC and IP Address configuration on ADA Standard Monitor

Resolution

Follow the below guidelines while configuring Network interface cards on ADA Monitor machine.

  • There should be minimum two NICs required.
  • One will act as monitor NIC which would receive data from SPAN port of your switch. Configure dummy IP for this NIC
  • Other NIC should have IP Configured which can communicate with ADA Console. This is management NIC.
