Generating Reports Using Monitor
Note For a complete explanation of available data views and report types, see Understanding Data Views,
page 1-13.
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 3-5 shows
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 1-13 for more information.
Figure 3-5 Monitor Parameters Pane
Table 3-2 describes the fields in the Monitor parameters pane.
