InfoBoxes are tables of attributes accessed from parameters and application class icons. The PATROL Console and Agent provide some standard information, such as icon type or status. Most application classes provide additional information specific to the application or component being monitored. Standard fields are displayed near the top of an InfoBox, while fields that are defined by the application class are displayed near the bottom and may be identified by a check mark or by being below a horizontal rule, depending on your console type. 

The following table lists the fields that are standard for all application class InfoBoxes. All other InfoBox fields that appear are specific to the application class.
