On initial installation of Snare Reflector, and after logging in and working through the wizard, you are presented with an overall picture of the Snare Reflector. The dashboard displays both total event and disk cache statistics as well as per-Destination statistics.

If the dashboard does not show any destinations then you may add a destination via Settings | Destinations.

Each chart displays the number of events per second (Y-axis) at the time labelled (X-axis). Note that the times are displayed in local machine time. If required, UTC may be enabled and configurable from Settings | General | UTC Charts.

License Warnings

When the Snare Reflector is unlicensed it displays an information screen in the dashboard indicating that events are being collected but not reflected.

As soon as a valid license is added to the Reflector, it will begin sending events to the configured destinations.
