In our synthetic monitoring tool, the monitors index lists all monitors associated with your New Relic account, and gives you a quick snapshot of each monitor's performance over the last 24 hours. Select an individual monitor to view a Summary page and get a deeper insight into its performance over time. Or, filter the list to quickly compare the performance of similar monitors.

- Alert status: Indicates the status of any alerts on the monitor:
- Green: No open violations
- Red: Critical violation in progress
- Grey: No alert conditions defined with alerts
- Monitor status: Indicates a status has been applied to the monitor, such as Mute or Disabled.
- Success rate: The percentage of monitor checks that end in success. A multi-step monitor that does not complete all steps is considered a failure.
- Locations failing: The number of locations that have failed during the given timeframe.
- Period: How often the monitor checks run.
- Monitor type: The selected monitor type.
