The Network workspace

The ten tabs — Dashboard, Topology, Agents, Path Analysis, Events & Changes, Dependencies, Tests, Metrics, SNMP Traps, Discovery — and what each is for.

The Network workspace

Network in the left navigation is a workspace of tabs. They are ordered the way an investigation usually runs: what is the overall state, what does the estate look like, which agents are measuring it, where is a path broken, what changed, what depends on what — and then the things you configure.

Tab Route What it is for
Dashboard /network/dashboard Every test's pass/fail, latency and loss trends, the worst performers, and mesh health across agents. The first stop for "is the network healthy?".
Topology /network/topology Agents, targets and discovered devices as a map, with health on each link. Pick a test to overlay its path.
Agents /network/agents Register, configure, rotate keys and delete agents; see each one's status, host, capabilities and mesh measurements. The tab badge counts online against registered.
Path Analysis /network/path-analysis Hop-by-hop route to a target, per agent, over time — where latency or loss is introduced.
Events & Changes /network/changes Chronological network changes and alert transitions: route flips, agents going offline and back, thresholds crossed.
Dependencies /network/dependencies From passive observation: what each host actually talks to, the traffic matrix and top talkers — with the completeness of the data stated on every view.
Tests /network/tests Create, edit, enable or disable, and review scheduled tests.
Metrics /network/metrics Explore the raw latency, loss and jitter series behind the views.
SNMP Traps /network/snmp The device registry, live trap stream, poll targets and SNMPv3 users.
Discovery /network/discovery What agents have found on their local networks — ARP, mDNS, open ports — where discovery is enabled.

Everything here is fed by network agents. With none installed the workspace is empty by construction; with one, the Dashboard, Tests and Path Analysis work; the mesh columns, the latency matrix and agent-to-agent bandwidth tests need at least two.

Reading the tabs on a fresh install: the Agents badge is the honest signal. 0/1 means the agent is registered but has not sent a heartbeat — nothing else on the workspace will populate until it does.
