F5® SSL Orchestrator™ analytics provide a customizable view into your SSL orchestration statistics, and enable you to flexibly choose the information you want to view based on specified ranges of time that you can select and easily adjust. By leveraging the multiple options available, you can analyze dimensions individually, compare groups of dimensions and their statistics, and sort the charts and tables as you diagnose the performance and health of your system’s SSL orchestration.
- Hit Count
- Client Bytes In
- Server Bytes In
- Client Bytes Out
- Server Bytes Out
- Client Cipher Names
- Client Cipher Versions
- Server Cipher Names
- Server Cipher Versions
- Virtual Servers
- Servers (the final destination)
- Actions
You can also use the SSL Orchestrator analytics Scheduled Reports to set up an automatic reporting schedule and later view any stored scheduled statistical records.
About analytics dashboard capabilities
The F5® SSL Orchestrator™ analytics dashboard has customizable options so that you can view statistics for your orchestration’s top virtual servers, top sites bypassed, top sites decrypted, the most used client ciphers and protocols, and determine where the top server ciphers and protocols are used.
By customizing the timeline, charts, and tables, you can also:
- Adjust the timeline for the statistics displayed in the charts and tables to customize statics captured across a wide range of time, spanning between just a minute up to an entire year.
- Create comparison charts for two or more members of a dimension.
- Filter data across one or more dimensions.
- Sort table-based statistics for any dimension.
Timeline capabilities
- 1 min., 5 min., or 10 min. options reset the refresh time in minutes.
- Off freezes the data refresh collection.
You can also update the statistics on demand by selecting Refresh above the timeline.
Customizing timeline capabilities
You can customize the range of time in which you would like to view data, in both the charts and tables. When you first launch the analytics dashboard, the default range of time is set at the Last hour. You can change the range of time that appears on the timeline to several different settings.
Chart capabilities
You can reorder the customizable line charts by dragging them up or down to a different place in the chart stack. You can also minimize them so to hide their information.
Customizing chart capabilities
Within each line chart, you can identify a specific day and time within the time range selected. You can also select a block of time to be further analyzed. By leveraging the multiple options available, you can analyze dimensions individually, compare groups of dimensions and their statistics, and sort the charts as you diagnose the performance and health of your system’s SSL orchestration.
- Click .
- On the title bar of the line chart, place your cursor anywhere, click and hold to drag the chart up or down the chart stack.
- On the right side of the title bar, select the minus sign (-) to minimize the chart.
- Select the plus sign (+) to again maximize the chart.
Table capabilities
The customizable dimension tables can be reordered and expanded and minimized just like the line charts. By using the tab at the top of the table’s pane on the dashboard, you can expand the tables toward the center of the dashboard so that you can view all the table columns collecting statistics.
Customizing table capabilities
You can select each column within a table individually, and sort it to view the data in ascending or descending order.
