The Dashboard main menu allows users to customize what system information
they want to monitor, such as virus activity and system resources, which are
displayed as widgets. Within this menu, users can also add tabs, which are
referred to as pages. These pages contain widgets which you can customize.
The information provided by the widgets allows users to quickly assess what is
occurring on their networks and on the devices. For example, your Virus Report
widget may report that a specific virus has been detected several times. When
you select the virus name in the widget, you are redirected to the FortiGuard
Center's Virus Encyclopedia page for that virus, which provides additional
information about it.
The following topics are included in this section:
• The Dashboard main menu
• Widgets
• Adding and customizing pages
• Configuring widgets
• Customizing the Dashboard page
The Dashboard main menu provides users the flexibility they need to monitor the
network and devices. Within this menu, users can add the widgets they want to
view, make a specific page the default page, or edit existing widgets.
You can customize the Dashboard page (located within the Dashboard tab), by
editing the existing default widgets, or by adding or removing widgets. You can
also change the widget layout on this page. The Dashboard page is the default
page that appears when you first access the Dashboard main menu.
You can add nine pages and customize them with different combinations of
widgets. You can also delete these pages.
When customizing the Dashboard page or other pages, you can choose from the
following widgets:
• Resource Monitor •
• Network Monitor •
• Trap Console •
• Traffic Report •
• Event Report •
These widgets are similar to those available on the device's web-based manager.
