SonicOS 6.5 NSv About SonicOS Administration About SonicOS NSv 11 Task-oriented Management Interface The SonicOS NSv management interface is designed for user experience and ease of use. Based on usability studies, the management interface is organized into high-level tasks, with the top-level task in a menu in the header: Monitor Dashboards and graphs provide overall status of device and traffic statistics along with a threat prevention summary for overall traffic that is traversing the security appliance. Investigate Logs, reports, and some investigative tools, such as packet monitor, to identify a network or security incident and its remedy. Manage Quick Configuration Setup and configuration for the entire security appliance; used during initial setup, renewals, upgrades, and facilitates applying any remedies discovered during an investigation. Guides (wizards) for quickly setting up and configuring a basic SonicOS NSv system. For further information about the SonicOS NSv management interface, see SonicOS NSv Management Interface on page 14. Topics: · Task-oriented Navigation on page 12 · Dashboards on page 13 · Using the Classic Navigation Style on page 13 Task-oriented Navigation Clicking an entry in the top-level task menu displays a task-oriented, left navigation menu. The items in the navigation menu have been reorganized and grouped under labels for easier navigation, and some have been SonicOS 6.5 NSv About SonicOS Administration About SonicOS NSv 12 renamed. This functional breakdown makes it easier to complete tasks without switching between the top-level sections, and to determine the correct section at the start of each new task. Dashboards The default Dashboard page summarizes much of the data from the Capture Threat Assessment report. This dashboard provides the "here's what's going on, and here's what was blocked" information you need. In addition, the top of the dashboard provides general system and network health information to support your investigation tasks. Finally, the dashboard brings the wealth of security services and features available in the security appliance to the forefront. The large majority of the data relies on Real-time Data Collection and Aggregate AppFlow Report Data Collection being enabled. If one or both of these functions is not enabled, the dashboard presents some empty states. Using the Classic Navigation Style SonicOS NSv supports the classic SonicOS NSv navigation of previous versions. To toggle between the contemporary and classic navigation styles, click Navigation at the bottom of the left navigation pane.

Active connections, user sessions, VoIP calls, and similar activities can be disconnected or flushed dynamically with a single click Delete in the Flush or Logout column. This dynamic interface is designed to have no impact on the Web server, CPU utilization, bandwidth or other performance factors. You can leave your browser window on a dynamically updating page indefinitely with no impact to the performance of your security appliance. Navigating the Management Interface Navigating the management interface is facilitated by a hierarchy of menu items in the navigation pane (left side of your browser window) that are subordinate to the top-level task menu in the header. When you click a menu SonicOS 6.5 NSv About SonicOS Administration SonicOS NSv Management Interface 17 item, related management functions are displayed as submenu items in the navigation pane. Some of these pages are further subdivided with a menu across the top of the page. If the navigation pane continues below the bottom of your browser, use the slider or scroll wheel on your mouse. Consistency of Management Interface Settings As you move from management interface page to management interface page, you retain the settings through every login. For networks with multiple administrators, SonicOS NSv provides this ability to each admin user, maintaining the settings for each administrator even when other administrators log in through the same browser. This feature also offers options to store/retrieve client-side data shared across users or pages. Some common uses for this feature are restoring: · The last visited page for different logged-in administrators. · Displaying options of certain table pages. For instance, display options such as IP version, view type and From/To zone in the MANAGE | Network > Rules > Access Rules page can be restored for different administrators although only certain table pages can benefit from this feature, such as the Access Rules page.

SonicOS 6.5 NSv About SonicOS Administration SonicOS NSv Management Interface 33 Tooltips Topics: · Generic Tooltips on page 34 · Tooltips with Values on page 34 · Configuring Tooltips on page 35 Generic Tooltips SonicOS NSv provides embedded tooltips, or small pop-up balloons, that display when you hover your mouse over an element in the management interface or click on a small triangle after the element. They provide brief information describing the element. Tooltips are displayed for many forms, buttons, table headings, and entries. NOTE: Not all management interface elements have Tooltips. If a Tooltip does not display after hovering your mouse over an element for a couple of seconds, you can safely conclude that it does not have an associated Tooltip. Tooltips with Values When applicable, Tooltips display the minimum, maximum, and default values for form entries. These entries are generated directly from the SonicOS NSv firmware, so the values are correct for the specific platform and firmware combination you are using. Several tables include a tooltip that displays the maximum number of entries that the security appliance supports. For example, MANAGE | Policies | Address Objects displays the maximum number of address groups the security appliance supports. These entries are generated directly from the SonicOS NSv firmware, so the values are correct for the specific platform and firmware combination you are using. SonicOS 6.5 NSv About SonicOS Administration SonicOS NSv Management Interface 34 Tables that display the maximum entry tooltip include NAT policies, access rules, address objects, and address groups. Configuring Tooltips The behavior of the Tooltips are configured in the Web Management Settings section of MANAGE | System Setup System > Appliance > Base Settings. Tooltips are enabled by default. To disable Tooltips, clear Enable Tooltip. The duration of time before Tooltips display can be configured: This Option Configures the Duration, in Milliseconds, before Tooltips Display for Form Tooltip Delay Forms (fields where you enter text) Button Tooltip Delay Radio buttons and checkboxes Text Tooltip Delay Management Interface text Manipulating Tables Topics: · Navigating Dynamic Tables on page 35 · Sorting Tables on page 36 · Removing Table Entries on page 37 · Displaying Statistics on page 37 Navigating Dynamic Tables In the SonicOS NSv dynamic Management Interface, table statistics and log entries dynamically update without requiring you to reload your browsers. You can navigate tables in the management interface with a large number of entries by using the navigation buttons located on the upper-right corner of the table. The table navigation bar includes buttons for moving through table pages: You can specify the default table size (number of items per page) in the Web Management Settings section of MANAGE | System Setup > Appliance > Base Settings. SonicOS 6.5 NSv About SonicOS Administration SonicOS NSv Management Interface 35 Sorting Tables Tables are sorted automatically by the first column of data (not the # column). Many tables can be resorted by clicking on the headings for the various columns. On tables that are sortable, the cursor becomes a pointing hand when you mouse over the column headings. A small upward or downward triangle indicates the column on which the table is sorted and the direction of the sort. When tables are sorted, entries with the same value for the column are grouped together with the common value shaded as a subheading. In the following example, the Route Policies table is sorted by Priority. Selecting Table Entries Many tables allow you to select table entries for deleting, flushing, blocking, and other actions. Tables that allow you to do so start each row (entry) with a checkbox and usually a number: SonicOS 6.5 NSv About SonicOS Administration SonicOS NSv Management Interface 36 To select one or more entries: 1 Click the checkbox(es) of the entry/entries. 2 Complete the action. To select all entries at once: 1 Click the checkbox in the table header. 2 Complete the action. Removing Table Entries Active connections, user sessions, VoIP calls, and similar activities can be disconnected or flushed dynamically with a single click on the Delete icon in the Flush or Logout column. To flush one or more selected items in the table, click FLUSH. To flush all the items in the table, click FLUSH ALL.
