Filtering the Connection Log

Filter the Connections table so it displays only those connections matching the criteria specified in the Filter option.

Filter by

• Source IP
• Destination IP
• Destination Port
• Protocol
• Flow Type
• Source Interface
• Destination Interface

Filter Logic displays how the filter is applied.

The fields you enter values into are combined into a search string with a logical AND. For example, if you enter values for Source IP and Destination IP, the search string looks for connections matching:

Source IP AND Destination IP

Check the Group box next to any two or more criteria to combine them with a logical OR. For example, if you enter values for Source IP, Destination IP, and Protocol, and check Group next to Source IP and Destination IP, the search string looks for connections matching:

(Source IP OR Destination IP) AND Protocol

• Click Apply Filters to apply the filter immediately to the Active Connections table.
• Click Reset Filters to clear the filter and display the unfiltered results again.
• Click Export, and select if you want the results exported to a plain text file, or a Comma Separated Value (CSV) file for importing to a spreadsheet, reporting tool, or database. If you are prompted to Open or Save the file:
  1. Select Save.
  2. Enter a filename and path.
  3. Click OK.
