Visualizations
The Insights Dashboard is the home page for your Horizon Stream instance. It displays statistics and visualizations that represent the current state of your monitored network. You can also see data visualizations on the flows page, and on a per node basis by clicking the events/alarms icon on any node in your inventory.
Statistics and visualizations
The Insights Dashboard displays the following statistics and visualizations:
-
Alert Status: Number of alerts of each status (Critical, Major, and so on) and their incidence rate compared to the average for the selected time period (for example, "-15% Past 24 Hours").

Total Network Traffic: A graph of inbound and outbound network traffic over the selected time period.
-
Top 10 Applications: A graph displaying the top 10 most used applications in your monitored network over the selected time period.

By default, information is shown for the last 24 hours.
