# Vantage dashboard

Vantage lets you view a website as if you were in another country. Each browser tab can use its own exit node, so tab A can appear to be in Great Britain while tab B appears to be in Germany.

## Signing in

Choose **Sign in with Artemis**. New accounts start as **pending**: you can sign in, but no traffic is routed until you accept the terms and an administrator activates your account, gives you a trial, or your payment arrives.

## Tabs

- **Overview**: how your traffic flows, the Firefox extension download, and how long your sign-in lasts.
- **Nodes**: the exit fleet. Each row is one exit node: its country, type, public IP, state and how many sessions use it. **Burn** replaces a node with a fresh IP. **Cycle all IPs** replaces every node.
- **Platform** (admins): cloud spend, control-plane parts, origin overrides and the audit log.
- **Support**: ways to donate to keep the fleet running.
- **Accounts**, **Issues**, **Proxies** (admins): grant access, read reported connection problems, and manage vetted external SOCKS proxies.

## Status words

- **active** or **ready**: the node is online and can carry traffic.
- **Deploying**: a new cloud exit is starting; this usually takes about 3 minutes.
- **Awaiting install on device**: a donated device was enrolled but has not run the installer yet. Enrollments expire after 2 hours.
- **destroyed**: the node was removed. Destroyed nodes are hidden unless you choose to show them.

Hover over or focus a status label, or tap it, to read more. Press Escape to close the tip.

## Keyboard

- Use Tab and Shift+Tab to move between controls. The first Tab stop is **Skip to content**.
- Help opens in a side panel. Press Escape to close it; focus returns to the Help button.
