Data Analytics
Under the FortiView Server Load Balance sub-menu, the Data Analytics page shows, initially, the Dynamic Charts page.
This is among three tabs:
First we will speak of the Dynamic Charts page.
Dynamic Charts
In the Dynamic Charts tab, you can customize your data analytics chart by using the Add Widget button to create charts of your own. See the table below for details.
By default, Dynamic Charts is enabled to automatically refresh with new data to add to the charts. The data is tied to the Fast Stats log setting, in which the Traffic option is automatically enabled/disabled when Dynamic Charts is enabled/disabled. For details, see Configuring fast stats log settings.
To add a widget (chart):
- Go to FortiView > Data Analytics.
The configuration page displays the Dynamic Charts tab. - Click the Add Widget to open the Fast Report dialog.
- Make the entries and selections as described in Data Analytics Widget.
- Click Save when done.

History Chart |
A "history" chart shows historical data that the system captured over a specific time period in the past. The option is turned OFF (disabled) by default, but you can click the button to turn it ON (enable it). Note: If this option is turned off, the chart will be a pie chart. If it is turned on, then you will see a bar chart for most of the data types except for Session Total and Throughput Total which use line charts instead. Both bar charts and line charts have a time-range selector in their upper-right corner which allows you to select one of the following:
