User Monitor

The Monitor > Real Time Charts > User Monitor page provides a quick and easy method to monitor the number of active users on the SonicWall security appliance.

The User Monitor page provides these options to customize the display of recent user activity in the User Monitor table:

• View Style: Sets the scale of the X-axis, which displays the duration of time. The available options are:
  • Last 30 Minutes
  • Last 24 Hours
  • Last 30 Days

• Vertical Axis: Sets the scale of the Y-axis, which displays the number of users. The available options reflect the number of users. For example, two different systems would have different options.

  Example of options for Y-axis based on number of users

  Few Users	Many Users
  10	800
  100	8000
  1000	80000

• Select User Types icon : Displays a pop-up window, where you can select the types of users to be displayed, indicated by the associated color.

  

  By default, the above two options are displayed. If you wish to display inactive users and users authenticated by Single-Sign-On method, navigate to Device > Users > Settings and enable SSO Agent option and click Accept.

  

  When SSO Agent is enabled, the options Inactive Users and Users Authenticated by Single-Sign-on are displayed, indicated by the associated color.

• Refresh icon : Refreshes the User Monitor chart.
