Explanation

The Resources Widget on the PAN-OS Dashboard (B) provides a real-time graphical overview of CPU and memory utilization for both the management plane and the data plane simultaneously. This is the quickest and most direct location to view this dual-plane resource data in the GUI. 'Monitor > Utilization' (A) does not exist as a standard PAN-OS menu path. 'Support > Resources' (C) is not a valid navigation path. The 'Application Command and Control Center' (D), also known as the ACC, is focused on application traffic analytics, not system resource utilization.
