Dashboard

The site at a glance, with what needs attention first.

The dashboard opens with four numbers and then the list of problems, most serious first.

Dashboard
A healthy simulated site.
Number Means
Devices responding Polled devices that answered the last poll, out of all polled devices.
Open problems Critical and warning issues, with advisories counted separately.
Monitors needing attention Monitors that are critical, warning, unknown or stale.
Best-practice score The site's score out of 100 and its grade, from Health.

Below them:

  • Needs attention: open issues, with an active loop at the top and an Investigate link to its incident.
  • Recent changes: devices, links, endpoints and issues that appeared or went away.
  • Lifecycle: devices reaching end of support in the next 24 months. In this preview the dates come from a sample catalogue and are labelled Sample data.
  • Capacity hot spots: switches running out of access ports or PoE budget.
  • Failing best practices: the checks that lower the score.
Dashboard during a loop
The same site during a simulated loop: the loop leads Needs attention, and the Health icon in the sidebar shows a count.
