NFA main page is designed to display a dashboard of choice and offer facilities to access all application features via its main menu, navigation buttons, and links. Use Global Search (Ctrl K) to effortlessly steer the application using keyboard shortcuts.
NFA dashboards are the specific sets of flexible and interactive visualizations, designed for quick analysis of the network traffic data and informational awareness. Dashboards consist of widgets – containers with graphical representations of specific data, which can be added, edited, positioned, deleted or modified as you like.
NFA allows users to set up multiple dashboards. To see a list of existing dashboards, click the All Dashboards link in the top menu.
You can easily create a new dashboard in NFA from the All Dashboards directory.
Click the “ADD DASHBOARD” button. A pop-up will appear. Choose if you’d like to create a dashboard from scratch or build one based on an existing dashboard.
Select the widgets you’d like to add to your dashboard.
Provide a meaningful name and description for your dashboard. Mark if you’d prefer it to be a “Shared” (all NFA users will have access to dashboard) and/or “Favorite” dashboard.If you want the dashboard to be deletable, check ,,Deletable”. Press “SUBMIT” to continue.
Alternatively, you can create a new dashboard by cloning an existing one in the All Dashboards directory.
Access any of the dashboards you’ve created or had admin rights to. Click the padlock icon in the top menu to add, edit and delete widgets or customize the dashboard’s layout.
In the dashboard, users can select the time range for displaying data in the widgets. By default, all dashboards are set to display data for the past 4 hours.
You can select a predefined time range to be reflected across all dashboards. First, choose your desired time range (e.g., last 24 hours). Then, check the “Save changes for all dashboards” option and press “Apply”. This will update all widgets across all dashboards to display data for the selected time range, making it easy to maintain consistency without needing to adjust the time range each time. This feature is particularly useful for analysis and statistical purposes.
Click the “Delete” icon on the dashboard you’d like to get rid of in the All Dashboards directory.
You can only delete a dashboard if you created it, or if you‘ve been granted the corresponding admin rights.
All network traffic information in NFA is graphically represented by widgets, which are the main dashboard elements. Widgets encompass a particular query focusing on the desired network feature. A library of widgets is maintained by NFA and allows users to reuse them across all dashboards.
Use the Add Widget function available on each dashboard to see the library of existing widgets and place the desired ones on a dashboard.
You can easily create a new widget from scratch by proceeding to Data Explorer in the top menu, selecting the filtering and grouping options and subsequently saving the Data Explorer view as a new widget to the desired dashboard.
Alternatively, you can create a new widget by duplicating an existing one. Click on the existing widget name to open it in Data Explorer. Make desired modifications and save it as a new widget.
Feel free to change the widgets graph settings, appearance as well as the legend position by clicking the appropriate buttons in the top right corner of the Data Explorer graph or the actual widget.
To edit an existing widget, click the corresponding icon next to its name either in the widget library or on a dashboard. Please note that predefined widgets can not be edited.
An information icon provides details about the widget, including parameters, filters and refresh interval. Also, you can keep the widget up to date by clicking the refresh icon.
