The Desktop is an intuitive and powerful tab-based management user interface that covers all aspects of the system’s configuration. The following figure shows the main MediationZone Desktop window.

In the MediationZone Desktop menus, various types of configurations, tools, and inspectors are available depending on the type of license you have. For example if you don’t have a Diameter license none of the Diameter agents or profiles will be available in the Desktop.

Desktop Menus

There are three types of menus available for you when you click on the new button in the desktop menu as shown in the figure below: Configuration menu, Inspection menu, and Tools menu.

Composite-picture showing Desktop menus. Content of each menu is non-exhaustive and may vary per system environment.
