About the Home Dashboard
The WhatsUp Gold Home Dashboard is the first screen that you see after you complete the initial setup of WhatsUp Gold and log in to the web interface. Referred to as Home, this universal dashboard is designed to display the network information that you need most visible.
You can place any dashboard report on a Home dashboard; including summary, group, and device-specific data.
The content of this Dashboard varies for each user. Changes that you make to a dashboard view only affect your user account. This Dashboard should contain the information about your network that is most important to you. This Dashboard comes with some stock content such as Devices with Down Active Monitors and Top 10 Devices by Ping Response Time, although these reports can and should be replaced by the reports that are most relevant to your needs.
The Home Dashboard for all versions of WhatsUp Gold displays Getting Started and Alerts and Actions starter views. Depending on your specific plug-ins, user rights, and licensing, additional starter views may be present by default.
Each dashboard view includes several default dashboard reports that you can decide to keep, alter, or remove. You can also add other dashboard reports to these views. For more information, see Adding dashboard reports to a dashboard view.
You can create your own dashboard views for the Home dashboard through the Manage Dashboard Views dialog.
