Modify a Context Page

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.

You can customize context pages if your user account has the 'Edit Context Pages' and 'Drill into Views' role rights. The predefined Administrator and Designer roles have these role rights by default.

You can add or remove the tabbed pages that contain data views in context pages. You can edit the predefined tabs and can change the views that are displayed on those tabs. You can also rearrange tabs to change their order. Select 'Restore Tabs to Defaults' to revert changes to all tabs in the current context. All modifications are saved to the current tenant.

Follow these steps:

  1. Log in as a user with the required administrative role rights.
  2. Navigate to the item context whose page you want to edit. For example, click the link for a router on any dashboard to call up the Router context pages. Or navigate directly to an item context by clicking the item on an Inventory page.

    The first tab on the left is selected by default. The tab that is selected includes an Edit icon to let you access the Edit menu.
