Creating a Dashboard
Introduction
opCharts power is found in the ability to create, assign, and save custom dashboards designed to address specific user or functional needs. For example, you might create a series of executive-level dashboards that only reflect very abstracted data based on the status of groups of nodes and display these on both geographic and topological maps. Other dashboards, however, meant for use by Tier-I technicians might show node or device-level details, as well as interface information overlaid on a graphical network diagram. Each of these options can be quickly, and easily built using opCharts, assigned for access by users with specific rights, and even made the default dashboards for certain users based on their role or responsibility.
The following section will describe what components can be added to a dashboard, the various methods for adding these components to a new or existing dashboard, how to organize the vial layout of the components, and how to control user access and assignment of the default dashboard.
