Quick status bar

You can quickly view the status of devices on the Managed FortiGate pane with the quick status bar, which contains the following information in pie charts:

  • Managed APs
  • Online
  • Offline
  • Unauthorized
  • Client Connected

You can click each status in the legend to display in the content pane only the devices referenced in the quick status.

Use the Show Charts dropdown and toggle to show or hide charts. From the dropdown, select or de-select checkboxes to show or hide the respective chart.

To use charts in the quick status bar:
  1. Ensure that you are in the correct ADOM.
  2. Go to AP Manager.
  3. In the tree menu, click Device & Groups > Managed FortiGate (#). The quick status bar is displayed above the content pane.

  4. In the tree menu, select a managed FortiGate if central management is enabled, or a FortiGate if per-device management is enabled.

    You can adjust the view by selecting List, Radio, or Group from the view dropdown. The default is List.

    The devices are displayed in the content pane, and the quick status bar updates the charts.

  5. Mouse over the charts to see more information about the data in a tooltip.
  6. Click items in the legend to filter the devices displayed on the content pane. For example, if Offline is available in the legend, click Offline to display only devices that are currently offline.
