The first page that you view after a successful logon to the Manager is the Dashboard page.

The Dashboard page is the central interface from which all Manager interface components are available. The Dashboard page is logically divided into two sections: the top Menu bar and the lower Monitors section.

The Dashboard Settings dialog enables you to further customize your Dashboard page view.

You can perform the following tasks here:

Monitors — Use this option to add the monitors. The default category is All. Use the Operational or Security category to choose the monitors you want to view. You can also customize the data displayed in the monitors based on the admin domain and child domain. Monitors display data based on the admin domain selected from the Domain drop-down list.

The Dashboard displays only the top 10 unacknowledged alerts under each Security Monitor. To view the acknowledged alerts, go to the Attack Log page and select Acknowledged from the drop-down list. You can also select Any Alert State from the drop-down list, and the Manager will display both acknowledged and unacknowledged alerts.

Automatic Refresh — Use this option to set the automatic refresh time. The default time is 10 minutes. The minimum and maximum time for the automatic refresh are 1 minute and 10 minutes, respectively. For a manual refresh, select Disabled to disable the automatic refresh.
Layout — Use this option to customize the number of columns to be displayed in the Dashboard page. The default layout is 3 columns. The minimum and maximum number of columns that can be displayed are 2 columns and 4 columns, respectively.

Time Range — Use this option to select the time range to set the time range for viewing data on the selected monitor.
For example, if you select Automatic Refresh time as 10 minutes and the Time Range as 1 hour, then the information available for the selected monitor will be for the last 1 hour from the last refresh time. That is, if you select the Time Range at 9:30 AM, then you can view the data from 8:30 AM to 9:30 AM. But, as soon as the monitor is refreshed after 10 minutes, the data displayed on the Dashboard will be from 8:40 AM to 9:40 AM.
