Network dashboard

The Network Dashboard gives a pictorial view of the health of your network. Use it for information concerning interfaces and the speed and time at which bytes and packets are entering and exiting the network.

Navigating in IPS Local Management Interface: Monitor Health and Statistics > Network > Dashboard

You can find information concerning the following network options:
  • Network health: find out if it is up-to-date
  • Interfaces: find out mode, duplex, and link speed
  • Throughput Snapshot: view the minimum, maximum, and average Mbits per second of in, out, secured, and unanalyzed traffic
  • Packet Rate Snapshot: view the minimum, maximum, and average packets per second of blocked, injected, unanalyzed, and forwarded traffic
Note: You can click the graphs to navigate to pages with more detailed information.

The navigation changes depending on your network's configuration. The appliance may or may not show navigation to Segment Bandwidth, Segment Packets, Interface Bandwidth, and Interface Packets pages. For example, if all interfaces are paired, the appliance does not show navigation to Interface Bandwidth and Interface Packets pages. Another behavior to note is the link option to View non-paired interfaces if you have segments in Passive Mode. For example, if Segment 3 is in Passive Mode (ports are not paired), you can click View non-paired interfaces and change the mode, if desired.
