How to load the realtime view automatically for a wallboard display

Howto


Sometimes you want to setup a special display or monitor to show realtime activity as a wallboard in a room. In those cases, the computer will start a browser automatically, with no human interaction.

Asternic can load a page using GET parameters directly, so you can use it as the initial URL in a browser configuration, so it loads realtime with no intervention. The URL should be similar to this:

http://your.server.ip/stats/realtime.php?user=admin&password=admin&queues=100,101

Use a valid user and password and list of queues to show separated by commas, also use the correct host/ip address of your server.

With that URL the first thing you will see is the realtime wallboard listing queues 100 and 101.
