N-sight RMM Dashboard

To go to the main N-sight RMM Dashboard, click Assets in the Vertical menu.

Using the N-sight RMM Dashboard, you can manage and monitor your Clients and Sites, their devices, and device details. You can also enable features, configure alerting, and setup and view reports. The N-sight RMM Dashboard includes the following main sections:

  • Client list — lists the Clients (Departments) and Sites
  • North-pane — contains the Servers, Workstations, Mixed (Servers and Workstations), Mobile Devices, Network Devices, and Networks tabs
  • South-pane — contains detailed information based on the North-pane selection

You can customize your N-sight RMM Dashboard to view, hide or resize sections, use filters and columns to focus the information, choose a default tab, and more. You can also reset the N-sight RMM Dashboard layout to the default.

The N-sight RMM Dashboard automatically refreshes after five-minutes of inactivity and you can manually refresh the full dashboard, the North-pane and South-pane to ensure you are viewing the latest information.

If a device is recently added, you may need to refresh your N-sight RMM Dashboard or browser to view its information.

Client list

The Client list shows a hierarchical view of all your Clients and Sites. When you select a Client or Site in the menu, the North-pane automatically updates to display information for the selected item.

When you search for a Client or Site using the Search field, the Client list automatically updates the list of Clients.

You can configure the Client list sorting behavior using View> Sort Clients. Select the problem type that highlights Clients in red and shows them at the top of the Client list. You can select Server Problems and/or Workstation Problems.

You can compress or expand the Client list using <<.

North-pane

The North-pane contains the Servers, Workstations, Mixed (servers and workstations), Mobile Devices, Network Devices, and Networks tabs, which display high-level information about each device. For example, there are columns to show Client and Site names, columns to indicate which features are enabled, and when the device last responded to N-sight RMM.

Windows workstations that are set to Server mode during a manual Agent installation display in the Server tab and Mixed tab.

In addition to the filtering options on the North-pane, you can also filter the device information using the Asset Inventory and Filter Manager.

When you select a device in the North-pane, more in-depth information displays in the tabs of the South-pane.

South-pane

The South-pane uses the following tabs to display in-depth information about the device selected in the North-pane. Using the South-pane, you can view details about a device, add and edit checks and tasks, manage patches, and more.
