Dashboard and Chart Requirements

Many dashboards and charts have extra requirements. For example, many dashboards and charts require you to deploy ExtremeCloud IQ Controller.

To view requirements, hover your mouse over the Dashboard Description or Chart Description tooltip icon for the applicable dashboard or chart.

If a dashboard or chart shows no data, you may not meet the requirements for that data. Review the requirements in the tooltips. If the chart or dashboard still does not work, check with an Extreme Networks representative to ensure that your network meets the minimum requirements.
