[1] Enable Dashboard module on [Manager Daemon] Node.
Furthermore, Dashboard requires SSL/TLS. Create a self-signed certificate on this example.
[root@node01 ~]#
dnf install ceph-mgr-dashboard
[root@node01 ~]#
ceph mgr module enable dashboard

[root@node01 ~]#
ceph mgr module ls | grep -A 5 enabled_modules

    "enabled_modules": [
        "dashboard",
        "iostat",
        "pg_autoscaler",
        "restful"
    ],

# create self-signed certificate

[root@node01 ~]#
ceph dashboard create-self-signed-cert

Self-signed certificate created
# create a user for Dashboard

# [ceph dashboard ac-user-create (username) (password) administrator]

[root@node01 ~]#
ceph dashboard ac-user-create cent password administrator

{"username": "cent", "password": "$2b$12$HuybilLKpMXVYKBWxDPa6uniWcKv3wbDPVz6l4oQWIB4EB1QrlCcC", "roles": ["administrator"], "name": null, "email": null, "lastUpdate": 1593504285}

# confirm Dashboard URL

[root@node01 ~]#
ceph mgr services

{
    "dashboard": "https://node01.srv.world:8443/"
}
[2] On Dashboard Host, If Firewalld is running, allow service ports.
[root@node01 ~]#
firewall-cmd --add-port=8443/tcp --permanent

[root@node01 ~]#
firewall-cmd --reload

[3] Access to the Dashboard URL from a Client Computer with Web Browser, then Ceph Dashboard Login form is shown. Login as a user you just added in [1] section. After login, it's possible to see various status of Ceph Cluster.
