Dashboards are the primary feature for monitoring and troubleshooting Cisco Networking data problems from within VMware Aria Operations.

The following dashboards are included in the Management Pack for Cisco Networking:

  • Cisco Networking Overview provides at-a-glance heatmaps depicting the overall health of your Cisco Networking switches as well as child resources (descendants). When you click in an area of the heatmap, the Switch Topology widget displays the topology (relationship view) of the selected resource.

  • Cisco Networking Environment depicts your Cisco Networking environment from top-level resources down through the hierarchy. Selecting any resource from theEnvironment Overviewwidget on the left will populate health, alerts, KPIs, and properties information for that resource on the right.

  • Cisco Networking Performance allows users to determine performance problems originating from Cisco switches. You can select a switch, related port, virtual machine, and host system on the left to view key performance metrics—displayed in sparkline graphs—on the right.

  • Cisco Networking Traffic allows users to select a switch in order to view its throughput and bandwidth utilization information.
