Dashboard panel health icons
A Dashboard panel health icon is displayed in the upper-right corner of a Dashboard panel. It shows the status of the specific security area represented by the panel.
A Dashboard panel health icon shows the status of a panel icon with the most severe status, that is:
- A panel health icon changes from Normal to Warning when a warning level is exceeded for at least one icon in the panel.
- A panel health icon changes from Warning to Critical when a critical level is exceeded for at least one icon in the panel.
The network health icon
The network health icon is displayed on the right side of the Sophos Enterprise Console status bar. It shows the overall security status of your network.
The network health icon shows the status of the Dashboard panel with the most severe status, that is:
- The network's overall health icon changes from Normal to Warning when a warning level is exceeded for at least one icon in the Dashboard.
- The network's overall health icon changes from Warning to Critical when a critical level is exceeded for at least one icon in the Dashboard.
When you first install or upgrade Sophos Enterprise Console, the Dashboard uses the default warning and critical levels. You can configure your own warning and critical levels.
You can also set up email alerts to be sent to your chosen recipients when a warning or critical level has been exceeded for a Dashboard panel.
