The Modules page in DHost iConsole provides information about available eDirectory services and their states. You can also use the Modules page to start and stop (load or unload) these services.

You can only load or unload non-interactive modules such as LDAP, SNMP, and HTTPSTK.

The Modules page has the following attributes:

Attribute	Description
