5. Observability dashboards

The Observability dashboards provide a set of connected views for analyzing network activity at different levels of detail. Access these dashboards from the cClear Observability page as a primary entry point. Use these dashboards to monitor performance, identify unusual behavior, and investigate issues.

Dashboards are organized into three levels:

  • Overview dashboards provide aggregated metrics across all services, locations, monitoring points, and protocols. These dashboards act as the starting point for analysis, helping you quickly identify where to focus.

  • Detail dashboards focus on a specific service, location, monitoring point, protocol, or endpoint, providing more granular metrics and additional context for deeper analysis.

  • Conversation dashboards provide detailed views of traffic between peers, such as service-to-service, location-to-location, or endpoint-to-endpoint interactions.

Navigate between dashboards using links. Selecting a link opens a related dashboard with the current context, including time range, preserved. To return to a previous dashboard, use your browser's back button.

Together, these dashboards support progressive analysis, moving from high-level trends to detailed traffic inspection.
