Accessible from the Analytics tab in ExtremeCloud IQ Site Engine, the Dashboard tab displays an overview of application usage on your network, as well as network activity statistics through a series of real-time reports. The Dashboard is flexible and customizable - you can choose the reports and the design of the page to meet your specific needs. Many of the reports are links to more detailed pages.
The Dashboard includes a drop-down list with links to additional report dashboards:
- Insights
- Client/Server
- Applications Browser
- Industry
- Response Time
- Network Service
- Tracked Applications
Several report pages can be launched in the Reports > Reports Designer view in ExtremeCloud IQ Site Engine by selecting the Launch in Report Designer icon (
).
Insights Dashboard Reports
The Insights dashboard displays graphs with real-time network and application usage and service data, and tools that you can use to customize the dashboard using drag-and-drop capabilities.
Five ring charts display real-time Engines, Disk Usage, Flow Rate, Network, and Application usage and service data. The ring charts are links to additional data. The Network and Application charts link to the Network Service and Response Time report dashboards, respectively, which are also accessible from the Dashboard drop-down list.
Use the Custom Dashboard to drag and drop only the graphs you want on your dashboard. Each graph is a real-time preview and many are linked to additional detail reports. You can also choose whether the graphs in the Application Group area are organized in columns or rows in the Custom Dashboard area.
Client/Server Dashboard Reports
This dashboard displays reports on clients and servers seen on the network over the last 24 hours. It also displays reports on top clients by bandwidth, flow, or number of applications, and top servers by bandwidth or flow.
Select the Info icon (
) at the top right of the dashboard page to read a description of each report.
Applications Browser Dashboard Report
The Application Browser Dashboard displays bubble maps for top applications by bytes and flows, top profiles by bytes, and top sites by bytes. Hovering over a bubble displays bandwidth use or the number of flows. Use the drop-down menus to change the start date and time for the reports.
Drill-down for more information by selecting an application bubble to open a new graph of clients, flows, and usage data for that application. In that graph, select a client link to view application data for that client.
