System dashboard

The System dashboard shows system information, the state of system alarms as well as a summary of other Exinda appliances and their respective reductionmeasures the amount of redundant data that has been removed from the network, increasing capacity statistics. The dashboard answers questions, such as "Are there any issues with the NICs, or CPU utilization, or SMB signed connections, etc? What is this appliance licensed for? What is this appliance's host ID? What is the reduction ratio between this appliance and others that it's accelerating with?"
