Acquire a basic understanding of the data presented on the Monitoring - Home page.
The Monitoring - Home page presents data visualizations that enable an understanding of network device and KPI status. It is the default page provided by the service when you navigate to the Network Performance Monitoring Dashboard.
In addition to data visualizations, the page provides a global filter to enable the narrowing of data without complex queries. Parameters include the following:
- Customer Name: Devices owned by specific customers.
- GSMA Code: Devices associated with a specific GSMA code.
- Data Source: Any supported data source used to track network devices and operating systems.
- Node Name: Specify a node by name.
- Interface Name: Specify a supported interface.
- Event Type: Specify the event type.
Each parameter allows a boolean Include/Exclude option. Click
Include
to limit the result to include your selection. Click Exclude
to limit the result to exclude your selection. Hover over the right upper corner to to present the display options icon (elipsis). The following display options for the visualization are supported:
- Settings: Apply a custom time range or other options.
- Inspect: Download a report.
- Maximize: Enlarge the visualization to see more information. The control toggles to Minimize.
