VOXI listens by default on a second port – 8080 – to which monitor requests can be sent. Any HTTP GET or POST request returns the basic status of VOXI. Requests on this port do not use any database connections nor any processing engines, and so are more likely to be responded to if VOXI itself has encountered problems.
It is critical that VOXI's monitoring port is never made accessible to the outside world, and that no outside agent can call VOXI's /status/
