37 Configuring SLA for a router 
SLA reporting works in two parts: 
1.  The Virtual Access Monitor system server connects via SSH into the router and 
schedules the task of uploading statistics to Monitor. 
2.  The Virtual Access router monitors UDP keepalive packets. It creates and stores 
statistics in bins. These statistics are uploaded every hour to the Monitor server.
