View the dashboard

Click Dashboard in the toolbar to view your managed widgets. You can add additional widgets by clicking the Add Widgets drop-down menu.

The Dashboard displays status summary information about your devices, groups, and monitors. It consolidates small reports (known as widgets) into a summary page that displays status information about your devices, groups, and monitors.

Widgets

Widgets (also known as web resources) collect data from your network devices and display the results using text and graphics. When you click a device in a widget, the Dashboard displays text and graphs that provide details about the device.

Below is an example of a widget you can select from the Add Widgets drop-down menu.

All widgets you select in the Dashboard view display in the My Network screen. These widgets cannot be shared with any other group. All other groups, devices, and monitors share a common dashboard layout with other dashboards of the same kind.

My Network Contents

The My Network Contents web resource provides the status of all devices and groups in your network. When you click a resource (such as All Managed Devices), ipMonitor displays all resources for the selected category in a separate view.
