Some users install a Tomcat server and install FusionReactor into that as the monitoring server. This has the advantage that no ColdFusion server is being used as the monitor and Tomcat won't have to be brought down for any reason typically.

Other users configure a cross-over monitor, which simply means that they monitor all of the boxes from one monitoring server (e.g. Tomcat), and then they have one of the servers monitor Tomcat. This way if any server goes away you will receive a "Server Down" notification.

The FusionReactor Enterprise Dashboard remotely connects to a server using a configurable port number, typically 8088 or you can use port 80 if you configure FusionReactor to be available via your normal web server.
