A Metin2 server relies on multiple ‘Channels’ (e.g., CH1, CH2, CH3) to distribute overall player load. In turn, each Channel runs on multiple ‘Cores’ (individual processes executed on your dedicated server).

​
Dashboard Configuration

By defining your Channels and Cores in the CMS, you allow the CMS backend to intelligently query the status of those exact processes in real-time. Channels and Cores Configuration
1

Add a Channel

Give your channel a recognizable name, such as Channel 1 or CH1.
2

Add Cores to the Channel

Define the specific IP Address and Port that the game server core is bound to and listening on.
3

Verify Connectivity

If set up correctly, the CMS’s real-time Server Status widget will illuminate green when those corresponding IP/PORT combinations are actively accepting connections.
Understanding is_active on Cores: The “Core is active” checkbox acts as a physical toggle switch. It tells the CMS whether it should actively attempt to communicate with that specific core process or ignore it.
