About the Home Workspace

Home Workspace

The WhatsUp Gold Home Workspace is the first screen that you see after you log in to the web interface. Referred to as "Home," this universal workspace is designed to house the network information that you need most visible.

The Home Workspace can display both Home- and Device-level workspace reports. You can place any workspace report on a Home workspace; mixing and matching summary, group, and device-specific data.

The content of this Workspace varies for each user. Changes that you make to a workspace view only affect your user account. This Workspace should contain the information about your network that is most important to you. This Workspace 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 job.

The Home Workspace also includes three starter views:

• General
• Problem Areas 1
• Problem Areas 2

Each workspace view includes several default workspace reports that you can decide to keep, alter, or remove. You can also add other workspace reports to these views. For more information, see Adding workspace reports to your Home Workspace.

You can create your own workspace views for the Home workspace through the Manage Workspace Views dialog.
