Dashboard
FortiOS dashboards can have a Network Operations Center (NOC) or responsive layout.
- On a responsive dashboard, the number of columns is determined by the size of the screen. Widgets can only be resized horizontally, but the dashboard will fit on all screen sizes.
- On a NOC dashboard, the number of columns is explicitly set. Widgets can be resized both vertically and horizontally, but the dashboard will look best on the screen size that it is configured for.
Multiple dashboards of both types can be created, for both individual VDOMs and globally. Widgets are interactive; clicking or hovering over most widgets shows additional information or links to relevant pages. Widgets can be reorganized by clicking and dragging them around the screen.
Four dashboards are available by default: Status, Top Usage LAN/DMZ, Security, and System Events.
