Frequently used panels
NetIM supports several types of default Summary, Map, Data, and Banner panels, as well as additional panels that can be added by users.
The following sections present some of the more useful panels.
Adding panels and applying templates
Synthetic Tests panel
In addition to the Home page, the Synthetic Test summary information panel can be found on the Device At a Glance page and Group/Site At a Glance page.
The Synthetic Tests panel displays the health of your Synthetic Tests summarized by test type.
Hardware Sensors status panel
You can now configure and view ENTITY-SENSOR-MIB data in the Device Hardware Sensor Status panel. The ENTITY-SENSOR-MIB is a standard MIB and hence more widely supported by vendors than individual proprietary MIBs for hardware sensor data.
The Hardware Sensors status panel allows you to easily view a summary of the hardware sensor status of your device’s power supply, fan, and overall temperature.
The sensor data is aggregated to high-level LEDs in the panel that can be expanded to see the detail for each sensor.
Metric Period Summary panel
The Metric Period Summary panel allows you to easily compare metric values over time using a summary of various, selectable, time periods for the chosen metric. Additionally, the panel provides quick, drill-down access to a detailed time-series data for the selected time period.
Event Details panel
The Event Details panel provides a summary visualization of all received SNMP Traps and Syslogs that have been associated with a specific element. The table displays a ranked listing of the events and their associated severity and category.
Enumerated Value LED Series panel
The Enumerated Value LED Series panel allows for customized visualization of any “enumerated” metric (for example, status, health, and so on). You can customize colors and display of the values over time.
Top/Bottom-N Custom View panel
Top/Bottom-N Panel Filtering is provided in Top/Bottom-N Custom View panels. You can select whether you want the results shown in the Top-N/Bottom-N panel to be limited to only elements that eclipse a selected threshold value.
Gauge and line chart panels
Although gauge and line charts can be added as panels, they cannot be applied to all metrics at this time.
