Monitor Parameters Pane

Reports in Cisco PVM are generated with minimal input parameters: each report in the Cisco PVM Monitor GUI uses the parameters frame at the top of the window for parameter input. Figure 3-5shows the Monitor parameters pane.

Note Each time you select a new report to run, the parameters pane retains the parameters from the previously run report. The available Data Views and Report Types depend on the specific report selected. See Understanding Data Views, page 1-13for more information.
