Monitoring Status Timeline

LTN Global

About

When enabled, Status Timeline replaces static status LEDs with a historic timeline bar, giving you an instant view of stream health history.

Overview

Using Status LED Only will give you a status dot that reflects the current state of an endpoint. There is no way to see whether a problem just started, has been ongoing, or is already recovering.

Status Timeline improves the monitoring situation by replacing the dot with a horizontal bar showing the last hour of status history making any changes in status clearly visible. A circle on the right end of the bar still shows the current live status.

What you can do from the timeline context menu

Clicking a status stripe opens a context menu with actions specific to that entity and endpoint type. Available options depend on your permissions, the entity type, and the channel configuration. Unavailable options are hidden or disabled.

For a Booking (Source column), you may see:

  • (1) Endpoint details — Opens the Leaf information modal (e.g., ltnp-fra-a-connector1-e5)
  • (2) Source video preview — Opens the Leaf modal with video preview (Source only; hidden for Destination, as the Leaf modal has no video preview)
  • (3) Source monitoring — Opens the Grafana dashboard (available if your channel has a probe and you have the ENHANCED_MONITORING permission)
  • (4) Channel stats — Same as in the channel modal (available if your channel has "full access")
  • (5) Channel alarms — Same as in the channel modal
  • (6) Connector stats — Available if your channel has a connector leaf
  • (7) Feed report — Same as in the booking modal
  • (8) Source last mile stats — Available if your channel has an INGEST site ("Site stats" in the channel modal)

Note: Not all options appear for every entity. What you see depends on whether you're viewing a source or destination, your permissions, and your channel configuration.
