The JBoss AS Administration Console is a SEAM-based web
application for managing and monitoring a single JBoss AS instance. Known in
the community as the open source project Embedded Jopr (pronounced
"jopper"): Embedded because it runs inside a JBoss Application Server
and Jopr because it uses the same infrastructure the Jopr project which is the
open source enterprise management solution for JBoss middleware projects. The
JBoss AS Administration Console (also referred to as Console in this guide) has
been included in JBoss Application Server distributions since release 5.1.0.
Successive releases continue to improve the server management capabilities
eventually replacing the jmx- and web consoles.
