FortiGate-7000E dashboard widgets

The FortiGate-7000E includes a number of custom dashboard widgets that provide extra or custom information for FortiGate-7000E systems.

Security Fabric

Similar to any FortiGate, the Security Fabric widget shows high-level Security Fabric status information for the FortiGate-7000E.

Interface Bandwidth

You can create multiple Interface Bandwidth widgets to show traffic that is transmitted and received by any FortiGate-7000E interface. You can create Interface Bandwidth widgets for:

  • Any physical interface
  • Any link aggregation (LAG) interface
  • Any redundant interface
  • Any individual member of a LAG or a redundant interface
  • Any VLAN interface
  • Any IPsec VPN tunnel interface

Interface bandwidth widgets display all of the traffic processed by the interface, independently of how the traffic is load balanced.

You can create individual Interface Bandwidth widgets for each interface that you want to monitor. After you create a widget, you can choose to display traffic for the last hour, 24 hours, or week, updated in real time.

To display similar information from the CLI for physical interfaces, use the following command:

diagnose hardware deviceinfo nic <interface-name>

To display similar information from the CLI for LAG and VLAN interfaces, use the following command:

diagnose netlink interface list <interface-name>

Resource Usage

You can create multiple Resource Usage widgets to show CPU use, log rate, memory use, session creation rate, and the number of active sessions. You can create separate widgets for management traffic and data traffic. After you have crated a widget, you can choose to display data for the last 1 minute to 24 hours, updated in real time.

Sensor Information

The Sensor Information widget displays FortiGate-7000E temperature, power supply (PSU), and fan speed information. You can click on any item on the widget to display data collected by individual sensors.
