Endpoint Management Dashboard

The Endpoint Management Dashboard provides comprehensive visibility into managed and unmanaged endpoints across your infrastructure. View overall endpoint status and category-wise distribution of endpoints by type, track auto-regeneration activities, and monitor discovery success and failure metrics in a consolidated view.

Overview

The Endpoint Management Dashboard is a legacy dashboard that displays real-time metrics and statistics about devices and endpoints across your AppViewX deployment. This dashboard leverages data from the Device Inventory database to provide both summary-level and detailed category-wise insights into your endpoint infrastructure.

The dashboard helps you:

  • Monitor the distribution of managed versus unmanaged endpoints
  • Identify endpoints by type and category
  • Track auto-regeneration activities and status
  • Analyze endpoint discovery metrics and troubleshoot discovery failures
  • Gain visibility into endpoint compliance and readiness status
  • Plan endpoint lifecycle management initiatives

Dashboard Widgets and Metrics

The Endpoint Management Dashboard includes the following key widgets:

Managed vs. Unmanaged Endpoints Overview

Widget Type: Summary Card with Pie Chart

This widget displays the total count of endpoints in your infrastructure, broken down into two primary categories:

  • Managed Endpoints: Endpoints that are actively registered, monitored, and managed through AppViewX
  • Unmanaged Endpoints: Endpoints detected in your network but not yet registered or managed by AppViewX

The visual distribution helps you understand your current endpoint management coverage and identify unmanaged infrastructure that may require onboarding.

Endpoint Distribution by Category

Widget Type: Horizontal Bar Chart / Category Grid

This widget provides a detailed breakdown of endpoints across the following infrastructure categories:

  • ADC (Application Delivery Controller): Load balancers and application delivery infrastructure
  • Server: Physical and virtual servers running applications
  • Firewall: Network security appliances and firewall devices
  • Switch: Network switching infrastructure
  • Router: Network routing infrastructure
  • Cloud: Cloud-based infrastructure and instances
  • MDM (Mobile Device Management): Mobile and portable devices

Each category shows both the count of managed and unmanaged endpoints, allowing you to prioritize management efforts by infrastructure type.

Auto-Regeneration Activity and Status

Widget Type: Status Summary and Timeline

This widget tracks automatic regeneration activities performed on endpoints, including:

  • Total Auto-Regenerations: Count of automatic certificate or credential regeneration events
  • Successful Regenerations: Number of successfully completed auto-regeneration operations
  • Failed Regenerations: Number of auto-regeneration operations that encountered errors
  • Status by Endpoint Type: Breakdown of regeneration success rates by endpoint category
  • Recent Activity Timeline: Timeline showing recent auto-regeneration events with timestamps

Use this metric to ensure your auto-regeneration policies are functioning correctly and to identify endpoints experiencing issues.

Discovery Success and Failure Metrics

Widget Type: Success/Failure Summary and Trend Analysis

This widget monitors endpoint discovery operations and performance:

  • Total Discoveries Initiated: Total number of discovery scan operations
  • Discovery Success Rate: Percentage of discovery operations that completed successfully
  • Discovery Failures: Count and percentage of failed discovery operations
  • Success/Failure by Category: Discovery metrics broken down by endpoint type
  • Discovery Trends: Time-based trend showing discovery success rate over the past week/month
  • Failed Discovery Details: List of recent failed discoveries with error messages for troubleshooting

Monitor these metrics to ensure your endpoint discovery processes are running reliably and to identify patterns in discovery failures.

Endpoint Status Summary

Widget Type: Status Distribution Card

This widget shows the overall health and status of all managed endpoints:

  • Online/Active: Endpoints currently online and responsive
  • Offline/Inactive: Endpoints that are currently offline or unresponsive
  • Maintenance: Endpoints currently undergoing maintenance
  • Alert/Warning: Endpoints with active alerts or warnings
  • Unknown: Endpoints with indeterminate status

Use this at-a-glance view to quickly assess your infrastructure health.

Category-wise Distribution (Detailed View)

Widget Type: Detailed Category Matrix

This comprehensive widget displays a matrix view showing the intersection of:

Endpoint Category Managed Count Unmanaged Count Discovery Status
ADC Displays managed ADC count Displays unmanaged ADC count Latest discovery outcome
Server Displays managed server count Displays unmanaged server count Latest discovery outcome
(Additional categories repeat for Firewall, Switch, Router, Cloud, MDM)

Each row is clickable to drill down into detailed endpoints within that category.

Accessing the Endpoint Management Dashboard

  1. Log in to your AppViewX ONE instance with appropriate administrative or monitoring permissions.
  2. Navigate to Reporting > Dashboards.
  3. From the dashboard list, select Endpoint Management.

Interpreting Dashboard Data

High Unmanaged Endpoint Count

Indication: You have significant infrastructure not yet registered with AppViewX.

Actions to Consider:

  • Review unmanaged endpoint details to prioritize onboarding
  • Execute discovery scans to identify additional unmanaged endpoints
  • Create onboarding workflows for bulk endpoint registration
  • Update endpoint discovery credentials if new infrastructure has been added

High Discovery Failure Rate

Indication: Your discovery scan operations are encountering errors.

Actions to Consider:

  • Review failed discovery error messages for specific issues (authentication, network connectivity, timeout)
  • Verify discovery service credentials and permissions
  • Check network connectivity to endpoints being scanned
  • Verify firewall rules and access control lists allowing discovery traffic
  • Review endpoint logs for access denial or timeout events
  • Consider re-running discoveries at a different time if resources are constrained

High Auto-Regeneration Failure Rate

Indication: Automatic certificate or credential regeneration is not completing successfully.

Actions to Consider:

  • Review failed regeneration logs for specific error details
  • Verify auto-regeneration policies and scheduling
  • Check endpoint availability and connectivity during scheduled regeneration windows
  • Validate certificates and credentials being regenerated haven't expired
  • Review endpoint permissions and deployment account access
  • Contact affected endpoint administrators to resolve endpoint-specific issues

Imbalanced Category Distribution

Indication: One or more endpoint categories are significantly underrepresented.

Actions to Consider:

  • Review your infrastructure deployment to confirm endpoint type distribution
  • Execute targeted discovery scans for underrepresented categories
  • Check if endpoints are being miscategorized during discovery
  • Review endpoint discovery settings and classification rules
  • Plan infrastructure deployment or migration initiatives based on discovered patterns

Best Practices for Using the Endpoint Management Dashboard

  • Regular Monitoring: Schedule regular reviews of the dashboard to stay informed about endpoint infrastructure changes
  • Proactive Management: Use discovery failure metrics to identify and resolve issues before they impact operations
  • Capacity Planning: Review category distribution to inform infrastructure expansion and consolidation initiatives
  • Troubleshooting: Use dashboard drill-down capabilities to investigate specific endpoint issues
  • Sharing Insights: Export dashboard views to share endpoint infrastructure status with stakeholders and management
  • Policy Optimization: Use auto-regeneration metrics to refine and optimize regeneration policies
  • Discovery Scheduling: Schedule discovery scans during off-peak hours to minimize performance impact and reduce timeouts
  • Access Control: Ensure appropriate role-based access control is configured so team members see only endpoints they're authorized to manage
