Send Ports Category

The Nodinite BizTalk Monitoring Agent monitors BizTalk Send Ports from all BizTalk Applications. The monitoring agent automatically detects and manages new or removed Send Ports, ensuring your environment is always up to date.

  • Send Ports in BizTalk are listed within Nodinite as resources where the name is the send port name.
  • Nodinite uses the same notion of an Application, providing a 1:1 mapping with its BizTalk Application.
  • Send Ports are grouped by the Category Send Ports.
