Widgets

The Dashboard widgets provide valuable information about what is happening on
your network. The information gathered is received from logs and SNMP requests.
You can customize the Dashboard page (the default tab and any that you add), to
display a variety of these widgets.You can also customize each widget to your
requirements.

There are three widgets that receive their information from sources other than
logs: Resource Monitor, Network Monitor and Trap Console. The other widgets,
which include Report Browser, are all report widgets and receive all of their
information from logs.

Most widgets contain the following arrows and icons so that you can better
customize each individual widget:

• Expand Arrow – displays or hides widget details
• Edit – configures widget settings
• Refresh – immediately updates the display
• Print – prints the information of that widget as hardcopy
• Delete – removes the widget from the page.

When you are ready to configure a widget, you can select the + sign beside the
name of the page you want to configure widgets for. The + sign reveals the
Dashboard’s main menu options, which also enable you to set the page as the
default page. The default page is the page that appears when you access the
Dashboard main menu.
