Types of Report Pages

Two categories of report pages are generated from dashboards or linked to dashboards:

• Summary pages provide high-level information, such as averages from groups of managed items. Summary dashboards often provide a drilldown path to more detailed, related pages from a selected context.
• Context pages provide specific, focused performance or status data from a narrow context, such as a single router or server. These pages are available as drill-down links or tabs from Summary dashboards.

To drill in to a detailed view from a Summary dashboard, take one of the following steps:

• Right-click the item to select the context page that you want to see.
• Click the item to open the default context page.

Note: Your role rights must include the ability to Drill into Views.

Default sets of context pages are available for individual devices, interfaces, and servers. These pages include an extra set of tabs that let you access more specific context data for a selected managed item. For example, you can click tabs for Performance or Error data. The tab corresponding to the current page is highlighted.
