Performance monitors
The Performance Dashboard provides a high-level overview of the performance on the network.
This allows you to easily check the performance of devices, ports, and traffic on the network. The
Performance Dashboard also provides several features to help you quickly access performance
metrics and reports.
The dashboards update every ten minutes regardless of the currently selected tab (SAN, IP, or
Dashboard) or the SAN or LAN size.
You can change the default size of the status widgets and performance monitors by placing the
cursor on the divider until a double arrow displays. Click and drag the adjoining divider to resize the
window.
Reset the Performance Dashboard back to the default size by right-clicking in the white space and
selected Reset to Default.
