Dashboard Overview

You can use the dashboard to monitor switch status and performance.

The Dashboard window is similar to the Monitor > Trends window. The
Dashboard window displays the instantaneous status while the Trends window
displays the historical status. By using them together, you can gather the detailed
conditions of the switch and its ports. For information about the Trends window,

Front Panel View and Status Indicators

The Front Panel view is a graphical display of the front panels of the base switch
and attached switch expansion modules.

The switch components on the Front Panel view are color-coded by status. The
colors help you to quickly see if a fault or an error condition exists. The
system-level status indicators and port-level status indicators shown on the Front
Panel view match those on the physical switch.
