How to Export FlexViews to a Web Monitor

FlexViews gather information from selected networking devices and display that information in a tabular format. The data can be sorted, filtered, and exported into HTML pages automatically by Console. In addition, each FlexView can be configured to repeat the data gathering at a regular interval (polling). Console allows you to run multiple FlexViews simultaneously, each polling at a specified interval.

These FlexView features provides a foundation for a very powerful web-based monitoring system called a Web Monitor. While Console is running, each active FlexView that has been configured for polling and automatic export will create an updated HTML file at the end of the selected time interval. You can use the Web Monitor to view the data from those HTML files.

Use the following steps to access the Web Monitor, where you will find instructions for configuring FlexViews to export data. You will then be able to view the data using the Web Monitor.

  1. In the NetSight Suite Launch Page, click on the Administration tab.
  2. Click on the Server Utilities subtab. Enter the NetSight server login credentials.
  3. Click on the NetSight Suite Web Monitor link.
  4. Instructions for configuring FlexViews to export data are displayed. Follow these instructions to configure your FlexViews and access the data in the Web Monitor.
