This section helps you in navigating the Foglight browser interface.
Foglight displays dynamic data that is updated regularly. For this reason, avoid using your browser’s navigation buttons, as this may display cached views or result in an error message. Use the links in the navigation panel and display area instead.

Expand a module and select a dashboard to view it in the display area. The navigation panel can be edited to show only the modules that interest you. You may search the navigation panel to show only dashboards matching the entered string. Foglight remembers the state of the navigation panel between logins, so if you make changes to the navigation panel when you log out, those changes will persist the next time you log in.
