Report Configuration is a tool that configures reports of monitored tags. The configuration is stored in a general profile named ReportData containing all reports. The configuration is easy and quick.

Report Configuration allows you to make reports of tags defined in XRatel SNMP Server and XRatel PerfMon Server alike.

The reports can be configured in a scheduler, composed by a graphical interface, or via Command Line.
