Summary

In this chapter, we finished our initial configurations of our Orion NPM system. We saw an overview of the entire Orion dashboard, as well as an overview of the Orion Website Administration console. We also took a deep dive in user authentication with individual accounts and Microsoft Active Directory, we looked at how to configure thresholds, and we discussed Orion NPM licensing.

Now that our initial configuration is complete, let's move on and learn how to add devices to Orion NPM so we can start monitoring them!
