History Metrics

The History Metrics pane lets you configure the adaptive security appliance to keep a history of various
statistics, which ASDM can display on any Graph/Table. If you do not enable history metrics, you can
only monitor statistics in real time. Enabling history metrics lets you view statistics graphs from the last
10 minutes, 60 minutes, 12 hours, and 5 days.
To configure history metrics, perform the following steps:
Step 1 Choose Configuration > Device Management > Advanced > History Metrics.
The History Metrics pane appears.
Step 2 Check the ASDM History Metrics check box to enable history metrics, and then click Apply.
