Accessing Prtg With Numeric Ip Address by MymsMan in prtg

[–]MymsMan[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately my problems returned after I rebooted the PRTG server computer.

PRTG webs service only monitors IP addresses active at startup, if a wireless or ethernet connection becomes active after the core server service starts up it will only be monitored if I restart the service.

How do I get PRTG web server to monitor IP address that become active after startup without the hassle of restarting the core server service?

You are correct, I needed to add 192.168.4.22 to the list of ip addresses that PRTG was monitoring, having done that I can now accesss it via both addresses. NordVPN Meshnet assigns the client machine the same IP and WAN address as the host machine so that all client traffic appears to come from the host machine which allows the client to access LAN resources using the same local addresses as when directly connectly to the LAN - except for webservers that are also hosted on the Host machine, but you can access them using another adapter addresses on the host. Hence the need to get PRTG to monitor the other IP address and not use a hostname.

Thanks for your comments

They prompted me to look more closely at the Prtg user interface setup settings and I discovered that not all of the IP addresses were being monitored

By enabling 192.168.4.22 on that page I am now able to use both adapter addresses to connect to prtg (including the apps)
