Selecting the Nodes to Display: Using Filters

Using the View Filter window, you can set up filters that determine which of the nodes stored in the central node database will be displayed in your tree view. You can filter nodes based on specific Subnet, Status Group, Enterprise, Class, and/or Topology attributes.

To open the View Filter window:

1.Click on Filter from the New Tree View or Tree View Properties window. The View Filter window, Figure 5-8, will be displayed.

The check boxes above the filter categories allow you to either select or de-select all of the specific attributes listed. You must leave at least one attribute selected in each category; to logically eliminate a category from the filter, select all of its attributes.

Subnets

NetSight Element Manager automatically creates a subnet entry each time a node is added to the database; subnet entries can also be defined via the Discover application and/or via the View—>Subnetsoption in the primary window menu bar. All subnets which have been created will be displayed in this list box; use this list to select the subnets whose nodes you wish to display in your tree view.
