# Panel Items

As an IPTV reseller, logging into your master administration dashboard (usually an Xtream UI or XUI backend panel) can feel like sitting in the cockpit of a commercial jet—there are a lot of buttons, menus, and terms.

Every item inside that panel serves a distinct operational purpose. Here is a definitive breakdown of what all the core sections and features actually do.

### 🔑 1. The Inventory & Currency: Credit System

Credits are your wholesale inventory currency. You buy them in bulk from your master admin (e.g., 50 or 100 credits) and spend them piece-by-piece to create or renew client accounts.

* Total / Used / Remaining Credits: Displays your current financial balance.
* Credit Costs (The Math): The panel is hardcoded to deduct specific fractional amounts of a credit depending on the subscription length you generate:
  * 24-Hour Trial: Costs `0.0` credits (usually unlimited or capped daily).
  * 1 Month: Deducts `1.0` credit.
  * 3 Months: Deducts `3.0` credits.
  * 6 Months: Deducts `6.0` credits.
  * 12 Months: Deducts `12.0` credits.

### 👥 2. User & Line Management Tools

This is where you execute your day-to-day business operations—creating accounts, tracking expirations, and managing client access.

#### Create New Line (or Add User)

This is your primary tool. It opens a form where the system automatically randomizes a unique Username and Password.

* Select Package / Bouquet: Allows you to check or uncheck specific folders (e.g., unchecking adult content or international language bundles to customize the channel list for a specific customer).
* Max Connections: Dictates how many TVs can stream at the exact same time on this single account line (usually defaults to `1`, but you can increase it if a client pays for a multi-room plan).

#### Add MAG / Stalker Portal

Used strictly for clients who own a hardware MAG box or a Formuler device. Instead of generating a username and password, you enter the client's physical hardware MAC Address (`00:1A:79:...`) to bind their box directly to the server.

#### Manage Lines / Users List

Your main customer database ledger. It displays a table of every user you have ever created. It features several vital action icons next to each customer's name:

* 👁️ / Download Script: Clicking this generates the final links you send to the client. It provides their raw M3U URL, their EPG (TV Guide) Link, or breaks down their clean Xtream Codes parameters (Server, User, Pass).
* 🔄 Renew: Extends an existing user's expiration date. Clicking it opens a duration window and deducts the appropriate credits from your balance.
* ⏸️ Pause / Enable: Instantly halts a line's stream access without deleting the account. Perfect if a client is late on a payment or going on vacation.
* 🗑️ Delete: Completely purges the user from the database, instantly freeing up their MAC address or username.

### 🕵️‍♂️ 3. Troubleshooting & Live Monitoring Items

When a customer messages you saying, *"My screen is buffering!"* or *"I can't log in!"*, these are the diagnostic tools you use to solve the problem instantly.

* Live Connections / Active Streams: Shows you exactly what is happening in real-time. If a client is currently watching TV, their name will appear here. It tells you:
  * The exact channel or movie they are currently streaming.
  * Their Current IP Address (crucial for checking if they are using a VPN or connecting from an unauthorized network).

  * Their Output Format (e.g., H.264, HEVC, or MPEG-TS).
* Kill Connection: A vital security button. If an active user freezes or encounters an accidental connection loop, clicking this forcefully kicks them off the server for one second, forcing their player app to establish a clean, fresh handshake.
* ISP / Country Lock Flag: A toggle hidden inside user settings. Turning this on locks the client’s account to the very first IP address or country they log in from, preventing them from illegally leaking or sharing their login details with friends.

### 📈 4. Advanced Operational Items

As your business expands past managing individual retail clients, these tools help you scale your operational infrastructure.

* Sub-Resellers (Create / Manage Reseller): If you want to stop selling directly to retail customers and start acting as a wholesale supplier, this item lets you create miniature sub-panels for *other* people. You can sell a block of your own credits to a sub-reseller, who then goes out and finds their own retail clients under your umbrella.
* Custom DNS / Line Masking: Allows you to mask the raw, ugly server IP address with a professional, white-labeled domain name (e.g., turning `[http://192.168.1.50:8080](http://192.168.1.50:8080)` into `[http://yourbrandtv.com:8080](http://yourbrandtv.com:8080)`). This protects your server architecture from being easily discovered and blocked by local internet providers.

> #### 💡 The Golden Rule of Reselling:
>
> Never let your dashboard panel act as your *only* business ledger. Always maintain a separate, highly secure, private spreadsheet detailing client names, contact methods (Telegram, Signal, Email), activation dates, and device types. If the main server infrastructure undergoes an unexpected backend update or a portal domain change, you can contact your entire audience instantly to deploy the fix.
