Dashboards and widgets

FortiOS includes predefined dashboards so administrators can easily monitor device inventory, security threats, traffic, and network health. You can customize the appearance of a default dashboard to display data pertinent to your security fabric, or combine widgets to create custom dashboards. Many dashboards also allow you to switch views between fabric devices.

Each dashboard contains a set of widgets and monitors that allow you to view drill down data and take actions to prevent threats. Use widgets to perform tasks such as viewing device inventory, creating and deleting DHCP reservations, and disconnecting dial-up users. You can add or remove widgets to a dashboard, or save a widget as a standalone dashboard.
