Open Cache Admin Settings

Clicking on the Cache Admin Settings link will pop open a webpage where you can get high-level stats for your Device States and Auto Update Expiry (AUE). These charts are not drill-able from the web app but can be used as guides for you to use the reports from within the Reports tab of the sidebar to get further details. You can also force a full scan on your devices, contact support and access the Gopher Buddy Configuration panel (Premium license subscription required) from the web app.
