# View channel status and stream information

*Applies to: Pearl-2, Pearl Mini, Pearl Nexus, Pearl Nano*

You can see information about the status of a channel from the channel's status page
using the Admin panel, including:
- The status and uptime of encoder services
- Stream information and URLs
- Channel preview
- Active network connections

**View the status information for a channel using the Admin panel**
- Log in to the Admin panel as **admin**.
- From the Channels menu, click a channel to open the status page for that channel.

Active unicast and multicast stream information displays under **Connections**.

**Device differences**
- **Pearl-2:** More encoder information can be found on the Info page from the Configuration menu. The channel status page also does not currently display NDI connections
  under Connections: "NDI connections aren't currently displayed on the channel's
  status page under Connections."
- **Pearl Nano:** Pearl Nano has a single channel, so the Admin panel shows a **Channel** menu (singular) instead of the **Channels** menu used on multi-channel devices. The status page itself is reached the same way and shows the same information.
