Widgets
are the core components for the dashboard. Tabs provide the layout and widgets provide
the actual
data for the dashboard.
 |
NoteCustomizing 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.
|
Download the Control Manager widget pool (under
Product programs and widget pool on the Manual
Download and Scheduled Download screens)
periodically to check for new or updated widgets.
The data a widget displays comes from one of the following places:
-
Control Manager database
-
Trend Micro Smart Protection Network
- Managed products added to the Dashboard Server Visibility list
|
NoteSmart Feedback must be enabled to display data for widgets
that include data from Smart Protection Network.
|
The data a widget displays is controlled in two ways:
Widget Data
|
Item
|
Details
|
|
User account
|
A user’s account grants or restricts access to any managed product registered to Control Manager.
|
|
Scope
|
The data scope on many widgets can be individually
configured.
This means a user can further specify the data
source location for the widget.
Example: An OfficeScan
administrator, who manages multiple OfficeScan servers, could create
one tab and add widgets that display data for only one OfficeScan
server.
