Understanding Tabs Parent topic

The IMSVA dashboard uses tabs to provide flexibility for administrators. Tabs provide a container for widgets allowing administrators to create their own customized dashboard. The dashboard supports up to 30 tabs per user account.
You can move widgets on tabs by dragging and dropping widgets in various locations on the tab. The layout for a tab determines where you can move the widget.
Note
Note
Customizing the dashboard, tabs, or widgets for one user account has no effect on the dashboard, tabs, or widgets for a different user account. Each user account has a completely independent dashboard, tabs, and widgets from every other user account.

Default Tabs Parent topic

The default tabs replace the IMSVA Real-Time Statistics screen. All information that was available on the IMSVA Real-Time Statistics screen is available through the widgets on the default tabs. The dashboard provides the following default tabs:
  • System Overview
  • Message Traffic
  • IP Filtering
  • Cloud Pre-Filter
Note
Note
Deleting the default tabs permanently removes the tabs from viewing for the user account that removed the tabs. There is no way to recover a deleted tab. Deleting a default tab has no impact on the dashboard for other user accounts.
