## Overview

The **Dashboard **serves as the primary **monitoring **hub for your network security and DNS traffic. It provides a **comprehensive**, visual summary of your network activity, allowing you to instantly **assess **the health and security **status **of your deployed **infrastructure**.

:::hint{type="info"}
**How it works: **As your configured **endpoints **and **networks **route their DNS queries through the **filtering **system, this page automatically **aggregates **the data. It transforms raw traffic **logs **into easy-to-read metrics and highly customizable graphs, highlighting blocked threats, top accessed categories, and overall traffic trends.

The interface is **divided **into a top **section **featuring quick **metric **cards and a main workspace containing detailed **graphical **widgets.
