Presets

Presets provide a predefined configuration for specific use cases. You can pick a monitoring use case from the gallery. By applying the preset, all required configuration objects (profiles, channels, chapters, widgets, and reports) are created.

The system checks the services portal for new or updated presets automatically every 12 hours. Click Refresh at the bottom of the page to refresh all presets available for this version.

Presets require the Flowmon appliance to have access to services.flowmon.com.

Presets Gallery

The Presets gallery provides an overview of available presets. You can search through presets based on their name and description. Use the sidebar for quick filtering based on category. Click the preset card to see more details. Click Select to add the preset to the list. You can select and install multiple presets at a time.

Installation

Click Proceed to install to open the installation wizard. First, an overview of selected presets is available. You can remove the selected presets from the list, if needed.

Second, select which users the preset will be applied to.

Next, you can modify the preset options:

• Parent profile – newly created profiles will use the selected profile as their parent

• Type – real or shadow (see 5.5.1 Profile types)

• Profile quota – set the maximum disk space that the newly created real profiles can use

• History – create profiles now or recalculate the data for the last day

Finally, choose what preset content to apply (Profiles, Blacklists, Chapters, Reports, or Dashboards). Some of the checkboxes are dependent on others – unchecking one can affect the others.

Click Install to run the installation. After the installation finishes, you will be redirected back to the Presets gallery.
