The monitor status view
The monitor status view shows the current network traffic as well as the number of events detected in form of dashbord and the short-term trends (5 minutes). The dashbord on the top presents the traffic data in real-time mode, and trends chart presents a short period of time trend. By these values and trends, you can have a basic and intuitive understanding of the network. If you want to do more detailed analysis and diagnosis to the network, you need other views to provide more detail information.
