How Log Ago? Extension

Provide Meraki Dashboard's local time zone and shows how long ago an event occurred.
Simply install and watch the (Meraki) magic happen!
Clicking the page will refresh the times, or add them if they are missing.

>> \"Network-wide > Event log\" page:
- Display network local time zone on the header of Time column;
- Display how long ago that event occurred

Still in early release and only provides basic functionality.
We are not programmers, expect a lot of issues and kindly provide us feedback if you find something odd (we are looking for Time Zones that are not working as expected).

Patrick Plenge & Eduardo Azevedo
