The Custom Dashboard allows users to create a user-defined dashboard that displays data for different technologies. Go to Reporting > Custom Dashboard.

Any number and any combination of chart types can be added to the Custom Dashboard: Flow, NBAR, Class, Interface, and Destination. Drag and drop a chart icon into the custom dashboard window in the desired order.

By dragging charts into the custom dashboard window, any combination of the five chart types can be displayed in the Custom Dashboard. The nine horizontal and vertical dots next to each chart are used as separators between adjacent charts and function as size controls. When you put the cursor over a size control, the cursor changes to a double-sided arrow, and you can shrink or expand the chart in the horizontal or vertical direction by using the horizontal or vertical size controls, respectively. Putting the cursor over a chart’s title bar changes the timestamp on the right-hand side to two icons: a close icon in the right-hand corner and a collapse or expand chart icon to the left of the close icon.

A new Custom Dashboard is created by clicking on the New button at the top left-hand corner of the custom dashboard window. Each Custom Dashboard can be renamed by double-clicking on the tab. The Hide Palette/Show Palette button allows the user to hide or to show the five chart icons at the bottom of the Custom Dashboard. The default setting is Show Palette. Once created, each Custom Dashboard is automatically saved when the user closes the custom dashboard window. Details of each chart are shown on the following pages.
