Overview

The Metric Logs page in the Zequenze FLUX Admin Portal provides a comprehensive view of all metric data collected from various devices and sensors in your fleet. This centralized logging system displays real-time and historical metric information, allowing administrators to monitor system performance, track data collection activities, and troubleshoot connectivity issues across their IoT infrastructure.

Key Features

  • Real-time Metric Monitoring: View live data streams from connected devices and sensors
  • Historical Data Access: Browse through timestamped metric logs with detailed filtering options
  • Multi-parameter Tracking: Monitor various data types including packagenetwork managementtraffic operationsmetrics (ignored,Rx removed,Bytes, installed,Tx upgraded,Bytes, pendingRx upgrades)Error Bytes, Tx Error Bytes)
  • Advanced Filtering: Filter logs by date/time, element, location, profile, parameter, and organization
  • Data Export Capabilities: Export metric data for external analysis and reporting
  • Pagination Support: Navigate through large datasets efficiently with pagination controls

Notes/Tips

Performance Optimization

  • Use specific filters to reduce large dataset load times
  • Consider exporting data for complex analysis rather than processing in-browser
  • The default "Last hour" filter helps focus on recent activity
  • Use the refresh button to ensure you're viewing the most current data

Data Interpretation

  • 0.0 Bytes Results: May indicate no packagesnetwork matched the operation criteriatraffic during the measurement period or inactive interfaces
  • Large DashByte (-) ResultsValues: IndicateHigh operationstransmission thatvalues don't(e.g., produce22+ numericalbillion resultsbytes) butindicate weresignificant successfullynetwork executedactivity
  • Information Icons: Hover over or click the information icons next to numerical results for additional context
  • Error Pending UpgradesBytes: Non-zero error values may indicate packagesnetwork awaitingissues updates that may requirerequiring attention

Best Practices

  • Regularly monitor packagenetwork managementtraffic metrics to maintain system securityperformance and stabilityidentify bottlenecks
  • Use the organization filter when managing multi-tenant environments
  • Export historical data periodically for long-term trend analysis and compliancenetwork reportingcapacity planning
  • Monitor both installedtransmitted and upgradedreceived packagesbytes to trackunderstand systembidirectional changestraffic patterns
  • Track pendingerror upgradesbytes to identify and resolve network issues promptly
