Herculon SSL Orchestrator analytics provide a customizable view into your Herculon SSL Orchestrator statistics, and enable you to flexibly choose the information you want to view based on specified ranges of time that you can select and easily adjust. By leveraging the multiple options available, you can analyze dimensions individually, compare groups of dimensions and their statistics, and sort the charts and tables as you diagnose the performance and health of your system’s SSL orchestration.

You can also use the Herculon SSL Orchestrator analytics Scheduled Reports to set up an automatic reporting schedule and later view any stored scheduled statistical records.

The F5^® Herculon™ SSL Orchestrator™ analytics dashboard has customizable options so that you can view statistics for your orchestration’s top virtual servers, top sites bypassed, top sites decrypted, the most used client ciphers and protocols, and determine where the top server ciphers and protocols are used.

By customizing the timeline, charts, and tables, you can also:

• Adjust the timeline for the statistics displayed in the charts and tables to customize statics captured across a wide range of time, spanning between just a minute up to an entire year.
• Create comparison charts for two or more members of a dimension.
• Filter data across one or more dimensions.
• Sort table-based statistics for any dimension.

You can also update the statistics on demand by selecting Refresh above the timeline.

1. On the Main tab, click SSL Orchestrator > Analytics > Statistics to view the default charts, on the left, and dimensions, such as Client Cipher Names, Virtual Servers, and Actions, on the right. The default time for collecting data is set to show statistics gathered over the last hour.
   The Statistics screen opens.
2. Above the timeline, from the Last hour list, select the range of time you would like to view statistics across.
   • Last hour
   • Last 4 hours
   • Last day
   • Last week
   • Last month
   • Last year
   • Year to date
   • All
   The range of time you specified appears above the timeline bar.
3. Use the timeline sliders at each end of the timeline, to manually scroll back and forth, further narrowing in on ranges of time that are critical to the ongoing performance and health of your system's SSL orchestration.
   Once the sliders have been manipulated, you can also click and drag the bar above the timeline based on the newly specified timeline.

You can reorder the customizable line charts by dragging them up or down to a different place in the chart stack. You can also minimize them so to hide their information.
