Monitoring Dashboard

The Monitoring Dashboard provides a customisable, at-a-glance overview of device health and performance across the selected entity. Unlike the Devices page which presents a tabular list of hosts, the Dashboard is a freeform canvas — administrators choose exactly which devices, metrics, and graphs to surface, making it well-suited for building role-specific views: a NOC screen showing fleet-wide uptime, a site-focused panel for a specific vessel, or a capacity overview tracking WAN utilisation across multiple locations.

Navigate to ORCHESTRATOR → Monitoring → Dashboard. Use the [Entity] button in the top-right corner to switch between entities.

Customising the Dashboard

The dashboard layout is fully user-configurable. You can add multiple sections, each populated with a distinct set of devices and graphs. Changes are saved per user, so each administrator can maintain their own personalised view without affecting others.

Step 1 — Select Sections

Click [Customize Page] in the top-right corner to choose which sections to display on the dashboard. Enable the sections relevant to your monitoring needs and click Save.

Dashboard customisation — select sections

Step 2 — Select Devices and Graphs

Within each section, click [Customize Section] to configure its content:

  • Select the devices (hosts) to include in this section
  • Expand each device to choose which monitoring items and graphs to display

This allows you to compose targeted views — for example, a section showing only WAN traffic graphs for gateway devices at a specific site.

Step 3 — Save and Review

Click Save to apply your changes. The dashboard will reload with the updated layout, displaying live data for all selected items and graphs.

Troubleshooting

  • No data displayed — confirm the device is online and actively reporting to mfusion. Check the device status under Monitoring → Devices.
  • Graph appears empty — the selected monitoring item may be disabled on that host. Navigate to the host's Items tab under Monitoring → Devices to verify the item is enabled.
  • Section not showing — return to [Customize Page] and confirm the section is toggled on.
