Organization Client Experience

Dashboard interface monitoring network client experience; shows success rates: Wireless 68 percent, Wired 86 percent, WAN 94 percent. Highlights 6 impacted sites out of 20, 4 impacted devices out of 47, and 3 operational Mist Edge Tunnels. Includes tabs for navigation and filtering options; labeled BETA.

  • Overall SLE Health—This displays the overall SLE health across Wireless, Wired, and WAN clients. The SLE health score is calculated by considering a subset of the most actionable SLEs within each. There is also a shortcut in each widget you can use to jump to those Insights pages.

  • Active Sites—The Active Sites count indicates the number of sites in service and lists the sites that have had client activity in the past 7 days. This count also tells you the number of sites in your org that had client activity in the past 7 days. The breakdown provides you with the number of sites with optimal (represented in green) or sub-optimal (in red) SLEs for the subset of SLEs in each domain. This is refreshed every minute.

    Select the red portion of the bar to bring up the list of Impacted Sites with sub-optimal SLEs. This displays the impacted SLE and the success percentage.
