1
00:00:00,870 --> 00:00:08,270
So in this next video, I'm going to set up a dashboard for a Cisco Twenty four ports, which, OK,

2
00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:14,430
and I'm going to use the Xbox datasource on my Xbox server.

3
00:00:14,430 --> 00:00:22,170
I've already set this up so that my Xbox data source is already able to query data from this switch.

4
00:00:22,600 --> 00:00:32,040
If I was to go into Xbox, I can see that there is data on every single interface here is in out discards

5
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:33,750
and airs many things.

6
00:00:33,750 --> 00:00:37,020
And there's twenty four ports on there with data.

7
00:00:37,090 --> 00:00:38,700
There's a villain, one port.

8
00:00:38,700 --> 00:00:46,980
There's a whole lot of data that I can take from this switch in Ghafar to explore or search for Cybex

9
00:00:47,430 --> 00:00:52,560
that shows up now as a network device.

10
00:00:53,370 --> 00:00:59,700
The host is just called Switch and the application is really one of these things.

11
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:04,019
And I want to know about if it's received.

12
00:01:04,019 --> 00:01:10,680
And then we go I and graph straight away, I'm going to do is create a dashboard showing all the interfaces.

13
00:01:12,130 --> 00:01:19,630
Now, you might go around doing that, the first thing I will take note of, though, is this group,

14
00:01:19,870 --> 00:01:22,510
the host and the application.

15
00:01:22,810 --> 00:01:26,290
So I'm just going to copy that into a notepad.

16
00:01:26,920 --> 00:01:31,240
The switch I don't have to copy because I can just write that.

17
00:01:31,240 --> 00:01:37,870
And the word interface is really the most important bit here, because we'll do a read check on that

18
00:01:38,320 --> 00:01:41,470
and we'll also do a redshifts on that for will come to that.

19
00:01:42,130 --> 00:01:50,740
OK, so now go to Dashboard's manage and we'll create a new dashboard, going to quickly go into the

20
00:01:50,740 --> 00:02:02,230
settings and call it a Cisco switch mix with the Xbox data source.

21
00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:03,880
Very good.

22
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:04,900
We'll save that.

23
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:07,570
Now let's just create a variable.

24
00:02:08,169 --> 00:02:10,539
That variable is going to be interface.

25
00:02:12,850 --> 00:02:23,650
It's a query, I don't give it an optional name, the data source will be Zwick's or refresh on time

26
00:02:23,650 --> 00:02:27,970
change and the query is what we just copied.

27
00:02:28,000 --> 00:02:32,230
So normally you do star, dot star.

28
00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:35,850
Now B groups dot host.

29
00:02:36,640 --> 00:02:41,890
So the groups are templates, network devices, dot star.

30
00:02:42,920 --> 00:02:46,190
If we look at the preview, we see nothing yet.

31
00:02:46,210 --> 00:02:49,330
So we need to drill this down a little bit.

32
00:02:49,340 --> 00:02:52,270
So I'm going to use the word switch, which is the name of the host.

33
00:02:52,850 --> 00:02:54,820
OK, preview of where you switch.

34
00:02:55,990 --> 00:03:03,890
And we also want to know a little bit more about the interfaces, so there are many interface names,

35
00:03:03,920 --> 00:03:05,370
I want to show all those interfaces.

36
00:03:05,370 --> 00:03:07,120
So I'm going to use a regex just here now.

37
00:03:07,130 --> 00:03:10,930
So slash interface.

38
00:03:12,020 --> 00:03:20,150
Star slash like so, and down here, I'll get a preview of all the valleys, all the interfaces that

39
00:03:20,150 --> 00:03:27,760
I can query through the Xbox datasource for this switch, and there are a few more even for Valen one,

40
00:03:28,640 --> 00:03:32,690
I'm going to make this a multi value and I'm also going to include the whole option.

41
00:03:33,260 --> 00:03:33,900
Excellent.

42
00:03:34,190 --> 00:03:38,310
Let's add that at that interface.

43
00:03:38,630 --> 00:03:40,850
OK, let's preview that.

44
00:03:40,860 --> 00:03:48,580
And these are all white faces on, what, twenty four ports, which let's create a graph for that Saturday

45
00:03:49,100 --> 00:03:51,620
will choose a visualization is going to be a graph.

46
00:03:55,070 --> 00:04:05,000
Leave everything is default, the query first query is going to be from Xbox Metrix, the grouping network

47
00:04:05,010 --> 00:04:06,530
devices hosts.

48
00:04:07,720 --> 00:04:08,510
Switch.

49
00:04:09,220 --> 00:04:18,190
Application interface, that's this one up here and the item being it's received.

50
00:04:19,730 --> 00:04:25,730
But since this has interface, if I zero one written in it, I'm going to need to convert that to a

51
00:04:25,730 --> 00:04:26,400
rejects.

52
00:04:26,420 --> 00:04:26,870
So.

53
00:04:28,550 --> 00:04:31,340
Spitzer seemed like that very good.

54
00:04:32,870 --> 00:04:43,880
The general, I'm going to call it throughput interface, and it's going to repeat on interface vertical.

55
00:04:45,810 --> 00:04:49,260
Save that and preview that.

56
00:04:50,870 --> 00:05:01,250
OK, so let's have a look at multiple actually, I only have cables in one, two, three.

57
00:05:05,790 --> 00:05:14,730
These ones, OK, so we have some data on those that's improved, that's slightly effected that and

58
00:05:14,730 --> 00:05:20,100
we will duplicate this query and it will be it's.

59
00:05:22,130 --> 00:05:22,850
S..

60
00:05:24,530 --> 00:05:26,270
As a rejects as well.

61
00:05:27,470 --> 00:05:28,220
Very good.

62
00:05:28,490 --> 00:05:32,390
We have to interface in and out.

63
00:05:33,560 --> 00:05:34,940
Save that dashboard.

64
00:05:36,470 --> 00:05:37,560
Let's go back down here.

65
00:05:37,610 --> 00:05:39,500
Let's change the layout slightly.

66
00:05:41,070 --> 00:05:44,710
And that's all and there we go.

67
00:05:45,240 --> 00:05:53,010
And let's look at that for the last 30 minutes, okay, so not many of the interfaces are in use, but

68
00:05:53,010 --> 00:05:54,540
you can see some of them are.

69
00:05:56,490 --> 00:05:57,270
Save that.

70
00:05:59,230 --> 00:06:06,130
So that was just very quickly creating a dashboard for a Cisco switch that has already been configured

71
00:06:06,430 --> 00:06:08,260
inside one Cybex datasource.
