Incident Details

Incident Information Tile

The Incident Information tile displays the client impact count, AP impact count, incident category, incident sub-category, type, scope, duration, event start time, and event end time.

To view the impacted clients, click the value under the client impact count. The Impacted Client dialog box is displayed. This impacted client's hostname, MAC address, username, manufacturer, and network are displayed in the table. You can use the search option to search the required client by hostname, MAC address, username, manufacturer, or network.

Note: The hostname is displayed only if the user has successfully obtained an IP address from DHCP. If not, the MAC address is displayed in the Hostname column.

Note: The username is displayed only if the user has successfully passed authentication. If not, the MAC address is displayed in the Username column.

To troubleshoot the client, click Hostname in the Impacted Client dialog box. The Troubleshooting page is displayed.

To view the impacted APs, click the value under the AP Impact Count. The Impacted APs dialog box is displayed. This impacted AP name, model, MAC Address, and version are displayed in the table. You can use the search option to search the required AP by its name, model, or MAC address.

To view the affected AP details, click AP Name in the Impacted APs dialog box. The AP Details Report page is displayed. For more information, refer to Viewing Network Details.

Insight Tile

The Insight tile comprises Root Cause Analysis and Recommended Action panes.

Root Cause Analysis Pane

The Root Cause Analysis pane displays the root cause of the incident that has occurred. The root cause varies based on the incident type, impacted area, data events, and reason codes.

Recommended Action Pane

The Recommended Action pane displays the recommended actions to remediate the problems.

Network Impact Tile

The Network Impact tile consists of various donut charts that represent the areas of the network that were impacted by the incident. Each incident type and subtype has a different set of network impact donut charts, but it is common to see AP model, AP firmware, reason by AP, reason by event, WLAN, client OS types, radio bands, and reason, event type, which all help to explain some of the common questions: who is impacted, which devices are contributing, what are the reason codes, and more. Every donut chart is divided into donut charts of different colors. If you pause the pointer over any portion of the donut chart, an information box displays the impacted area of the incident and the clients affected by it. Under each donut chart is a summary line displaying the impact percentage of the incident. At the center of the donut chart, the total impacted count is displayed.

Mute and Unmute the Incident

Click Settings icon () at the top right of the Insight tile. The Mute Incident dialog box is displayed. By default, the incident is unmuted. To mute the incident, toggle the Switch to ON. When an incident is muted, it is hidden in the Incidents Table, and notifications via email and webhook are also muted. To unmute the incident, toggle the Switch to OFF. When an incident is unmuted, it is visible in the Incidents Table, and notifications via email and webhook are enabled.

To view the muted incident in the Incidents Table, refer to View the Muted Incident in the Incidents Table.
