Filtering by alert type
Since the view can include large numbers of alerts, a filter is available. You can use this filter to limit the types of alerts that appear.
You can filter on various severity levels or status settings, which lets you focus on only the specific alerts that interest you. For example, you can create and apply a filter that only displays the alerts that are acknowledged.
You can filter using any of the following built-in alert filters. These filters are available from the drop-down list which is present on top of the alert details table.
