By selecting a device from NGFW List or by following a link from elsewhere
in the application, you can view specific details about a firewall or Panorama
appliance, such as resource metrics, traffic metrics, connections, and more.
Select a device to view details like model, serial number, software version,
management IP address, role, and geo-location.
You can view the following information for the device:
- Inbound and outbound packet rate
- Total raised incidents on this device
- Five of the top current incidents by severity on the device
The current health grade of the device and a chart showing its history over the
past 30<x> days. Possible health grades are Good, Fair, Poor, and
Critical.
Resource metrics displays time series charts indicating the trend of the resource
metric associated with the CPU or memory resources of the device. The gray area
on the graph represents the metric's baseline performance range, plotted based
on the historical behavior of the metric. You can view the below graphs:
- Management Plane - CPU usage and memory usage utilization
- Data Plane
- Max and average CPU utilization
- Packet buffers and Packet descriptors utilization
- Disk Utilization indicating the memory allocated, used, available
with the utilization as a percentage for the time filter duration.
With Strata Cloud Manager Essentials or free tier licenses, you can view the
resource and traffic metric graphs with static threshold values: 60% for the
warning threshold and 80% for the critical threshold. In contrast, with a
Strata Cloud Manager Pro or premium tier license, these graphs include a
normality band (or baseline). Any data points that fall outside of this band
are highlighted with red scatter plot dots.
Traffic metrics provide time-series charts for NGFW devices, offering insights
into network traffic on:
- Session - Session table utilization, connections per second, packet
rate, session table utilization, and decrypted sessions.
- Tunnel - List of all tunnels configured for the device indicating
tunnel name, tunnel status, source IP address, and destination IP
address.
- Interface - Select an interface to view information about its
interface packet drops, packets received and transmitted, receive errors,
bytes received and transmitted.
View all the metrics collected for the device and its values associated with the
device. You can click a metric to view its details.
