Monitoring the Self Service Dashboard

Watch a video about Self Service.

Self Service can help users identify the root cause of issues related to CPU usage and Wi-Fi access, allowing users to investigate potential solutions without the need to contact customer support. When enabled for your users, Self Service provides notifications when issues are detected and might need attention. Each notification contains a brief diagnosis and recommendation that might help resolve the CPU or Wi-Fi issue. To learn more about the notifications, see Viewing Self Service User Notifications. To learn more about configuring the notifications for your users, see Configuring Self Service Settings.

The Self Service Dashboard consolidates user data pulled from the user notifications, and can provide a correlation between your users and the number, type, and frequency of notifications. To access the Self Service Dashboard in the ZDX Admin Portal, go to Dashboard > Self Service Dashboard.
