You can configure the network interactions map to show the nodes and links whose information is saved in the events associated with the selected nodes.
The capability to filter by events is available if no more than 200 nodes are selected on the network interactions map. You can select the relevant nodes individually or as part of collapsed groups that include the relevant devices. When a collapsed group is selected, all devices in the child groups of any nesting level are also included in the device selection.
You can use the following methods to filter by event:
Initial filtering by event. This method is applied if you need to filter objects based on events associated only with the selected nodes.
Additional filtering by event. This method is applied if initial filtering by events is already performed (for example, when switching to the network interactions map from the events table) and you need also to filter events associated with additionally selected nodes from the list of nodes displayed on the network interactions map.
To display nodes and links using initial filtering by event:
On the network interactions map, select one or multiple objects corresponding to nodes and/or collapsed groups.
To select multiple nodes and/or groups, do one of the following:
Hold down the SHIFT key and use your mouse to select a rectangular area containing the relevant objects.
Hold down the CTRL key and use your mouse to select the relevant objects.
In the toolbar above the network interactions map, open the Event filter drop-down list.
In the drop-down list, select Filter.
The network interactions map displays only the nodes and links whose information is contained in the events associated with the selected nodes. The toolbar located above the network interactions map displays a list containing the IDs of events (IDs are listed in the order in which their associated events were detected).
To add nodes and links to the displayed objects by using additional filtering by event:
Make sure that initial filtering by event has been performed. To do so, check for the availability of a list containing event IDs in the toolbar located above the network interactions map.
Among the nodes displayed on the network interactions map, select the nodes for which you want to add associated events to the filter.
The details area appears in the right part of the web interface window.
In the toolbar above the network interactions map, open the Event filter drop-down list.
In the drop-down list, select Add to filter.
The network interactions map also displays the nodes and links whose information is contained in the events associated with the selected nodes. The IDs of detected events are added to the list containing IDs in the toolbar.
