Context Menus

On most of the dashboards, you can left-click on the colored bar of data to get a context menu, with
which you can get more detailed information about one particular application.
The description to the right of “Selected Application” in the menu shows what item you had clicked on
(in the case above, “ftp”).
The menu items above the separator line are specific to the selected element of the Top N chart. The
items below the separator line are not specific to the selected element, but apply to the Top N chart.

Interactive Report

On most Monitoring or Analyze screens, you can use the Interactive Report on the left to redefine the
parameters of the information displayed in the dashboards. Click the Filter button to change the
parameters of the information displayed in the charts.
You can choose from various parameters, such as the time interval for the data being displayed. An
asterisk represents required fields.
The reporting time interval selection changes depending upon the dashboard you are viewing, and the
NAM platform you are using:

1 hour, last 4 hours, and last 8 hours.
