Dashboard Interface View - Collector


 

The All Devices-Dashboard View tab displays information on all interfaces from which NetFlow exports are received for that particular collector.

 

The default Router List shows all the routers and interfaces from which NetFlow exports have been received so far, along with specific details about each interface. The default view shows the first router's interfaces alone. The remaining routers' interfaces are hidden. Click the [Show All] link to display all routers' interfaces on the Dashboard. Click the [Hide All] link to hide all interfaces and show only the router names in the Router List.

 

You can set filters on the Dashboard view to display only those interfaces whose incoming or outgoing traffic values exceed a specified percentage value. Click the [Filter] link to specify minimum percentage values for IN or OUT traffic. Click the Set button for the changes to take effect. The filter settings are then displayed beside the [Filter] link. Click the Cancel icon at any time to clear the filter settings and display all interfaces on the Dashboard again.
