WAN Optimization Monitor, Cache Monitor, and Peer Monitor widgets are added to the device dashboard
WAN Optimization Monitor, Cache Monitor, and Peer Monitor widgets can be added to a dashboard in the device database.
To add Wan optimization, cache, and peer monitoring widgets to a dashboard:
-
Go to Device Manager > Device & Groups.
-
In the tree menu, double click a FortiGate under the Managed FortiGate or other device group to enter the device database.
-
On your chosen dashboard, for example Dashboard: Summary or a custom dashboard, click Add Widget. The Add Dashboard Widget pane opens.

In the Add Dashboard Widget pane, the following WAN Opt & Cache widgets can be added to the dashboard by selecting the add (+) icon next to each widget.
WAN Opt. Monitor
The Wan Opt. Monitor shows how WAN optimization is reducing the amount of traffic on the WAN for each WAN optimization protocol by showing the amount of WAN and LAN traffic. If WAN optimization is being effective, the amount of WAN traffic should be lower than the amount of LAN traffic.
