Lab Status

The Lab Status view gives you a quick summary of all classrooms at once. Instead of clicking into each classroom individually, you can see at a glance how many devices are online in every room.

Role Required: Viewer

Any authenticated user (Viewer, Operator, or Admin) can access Lab Status.

What Lab Status Shows

Lab Status displays a card for each classroom. Every card shows three key numbers:

Indicator Meaning
Online count Number of devices currently detected on the network
Total count Total number of managed devices registered in that classroom
Readiness percentage The percentage of devices that are online (online / total)

A classroom with 18 of 20 devices online would show 18 / 20 (90%). This tells you at a glance whether the room is ready for use.

How to Use Lab Status

Lab Status is most useful before the start of a class day. Open it to quickly identify which classrooms have devices that are not yet online. If a room shows a low readiness percentage, you can navigate to that classroom to investigate or trigger a wake operation.

You can also use Lab Status after running a site-wide or scheduled wake to verify that devices came online as expected.

How Lab Status Differs from Other Views

Lab Status can look similar to other parts of the application, but it serves a different purpose.

Lab Status vs. Classroom View: The classroom view shows individual devices within a single room, including each device's online/offline status, name, and detail panel. Lab Status shows all classrooms at once but only displays summary counts -- you cannot see individual devices from this view.

Lab Status vs. Network Monitor: The Network Monitor shows raw scan data grouped by network interface (e.g., ens224.140), including devices not in your managed inventory. Lab Status only shows managed devices grouped by classroom. Additionally, the Network Monitor requires the Admin role, while Lab Status is available to everyone.
