How to Connect – URL - http://<systemname>:2001
Due to changes in how browsers handle self-signed certificates, IBM Navigator for i will no longer be
shipped with SSL enabled by default. Users can configure SSL using the following instructions:
http://ibm.co/2f1vzYU. In addition, any saved URL's for IBM Navigator for i will not work by default
because we are now using HTTP and port 2004 instead of HTTPS and port 2005.

Show SQL: Easy way to learn SQL
You can generate SQL for most
database objects regardless if created
by SQL or DDS. If you generate SQL
for file that has triggers or constraints,
the SQL for those are also generated.

SQL Plan Cache
The plan cache is a repository that contains access plans for queries that were
optimized by SQE. SQL Plan Cache is always available. Can go back in time,
but can’t look back at SQL Performance monitor if it wasn’t started.

Intrusion Detection: Could be 3rd Coolest thing
Intrusion detection and prevention system notifies you of attempts to hack into or
disrupt your system. ID also monitors if someone is using your system to launch
attacks. This uses policies to monitor your system. A must for any company with
their machine on the Internet.

7 Key Points to take home
• This is free and ready to use on 7.4 down to 6.1
• Only need *ADMIN HTTP server running to access it.
• Use your machines IP address and the 2001 port
• Look at Performance graphs first get some bench marks.
• Use Index Advisor to find logical files you can create to improve
performance.
• If machine is on the Internet make sure you setup Intrusion Detection.
• Create quick and easy PDFs using the Basic Operations and Output
Queues.
