Using filter
You can use the filter to display only the hosts you are interested in. For better search performance, data is searched with macros unresolved.
The filter is located above the table. It is possible to filter hosts by name, host group, IP or DNS, interface port, tags, problem severity, status (enabled/disabled/any); you can also select whether to display suppressed problems and hosts that are currently in maintenance. Favorite filter settings can be saved as tabs and then quickly accessed by clicking on the tabs above the filter.
Notes:
- Name and Host group fields support multiple entries.
- Specifying a parent host group implicitly selects all nested host groups.
- By default problems of all severities are displayed, if not suppressed.
- By default hosts in maintenance are displayed, but suppressed problems on these hosts are not shown.
- When Severity filter is used and Show suppressed problems checkbox is unchecked, hosts with suppressed problems of the specified severity will not be displayed.
- Hosts can be filtered by host-level tags as well as tags from all linked templates, including parent templates.
