Features
Here's a summary of the features SSC Serv offers:
- Full protocol compatibility with collectd, now and in the future.
- Excellent Windows® integration: Configuration in the Control Panel, program registered as a system service, error reporting using the Event Log.
- Easy installation: Installation is done using the Windows® Installer, so it can be installed just like any other software.
- Complete uninstallation: If you need to uninstall SSC Serv you can do that and it won't leave a trace. You won't be able to tell it was installed at all.
- Advanced network techniques: As you should expect from a program that tries to be the collectd counterpart on Windows®, the advanced network features are supported, including IPv6 and multicast.
