Chapter 66 Viewing Events
Using Event Viewer
event matches 10.10.10.12. For devices that do not have overrides, the events must match
10.10.10.10. Furthermore, if Device A has an event that matches 10.10.10.10, that event is not listed
because it does not match the device-level override. Thus, using policy objects can provide results
that vary by device and therefore match more closely to your policy definitions.
If your organization is using ACS to control user access, you must have the appropriate View Object
privileges for network/host, network/host-IPv6, and service objects to use them in filters.
• You can filter on the contents of most but not all columns. If a column does not have a down arrow,
you cannot filter on it. For example, you cannot filter on Description, Event Name, Generation Time,
or Receive Time.
• The filter icon (a funnel) appears in the heading of a filtered column.
• For a description of the available columns, see Columns in Event Table, page 66-16.
Step 1 Do one of the following:
• In the View Settings pane, click the Add button. The Add Custom Filter to a Column dialog box
opens. Select the column on which to base the filter and click OK.
• In the View Settings pane, select a filter you want to change and click the Edit button.
• From the drop-down list for a column, select (Custom).
• Right-click any cell in the desired column and select Custom Filter.
The Custom Filter dialog box opens for the selected column.
Step 2 In the Custom Filter dialog box, select the desired values. The following illustration shows a typical
example of this dialog box, for the Source column.
Following is a description of the controls you might find in the Custom Filter dialog box. Not all controls
appear for every column:
• Available and Selected Items lists—In most cases, to select an item you highlight it in the left list,
which contains the available values, and click the right arrow to move it to the list of selected values.
You can select multiple values. The right list defines the filtered values.
