View the Historical Concurrent Connections in QGS

The QGS Web UI now displays concurrent (active) connections currently being served by the appliance. Data is refreshed every 10 minutes.

Available metrics:
The Conncurrent connections graph support the following metrics.

  • Current Concurrent/Active Connections – Number of requests currently being processed
  • Maximum Capacity – Maximum number of concurrent requests supported

Historical Peak Views

The trend graph supports three views: 12 hours, 24 hours, and 7 days. Each view shows the peak activity by concurrent IPs across the current connections over the past 12 hours, day, or week. 

Trend graph for Concurrent IPs

This trend graph provides a holistic view of the network activity in your appliances simplifying moderation for admins.

Reboot the Appliance directly from the QGS Interface.

Administrators can now reboot a specific QGS appliance directly from the web interface, eliminating the need to access the text-based appliance interface.

You can reboot the appliance from Reboot in the Quick Actions menu of any appliance.
