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

Filter Categories
Available filter categories are:
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—>Subnets option 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.
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.
