Table Features

ExtremeCloud IQ Site Engine tables include several features and functions that enable you to customize the table data. The table features vary, depending on the type of table you are viewing.

Columns

To perform an ascending or descending sort of the column data, select the column heading. An up arrow () indicates the column has been sorted in an ascending order, and a down arrow () indicates a descending sort. You can also select options from the column heading drop-down list to hide or display different columns in the table.

Filter

Use the Filter function to view, modify, apply, or remove filters from a table column. You can filter multiple columns in a table. The filtered data is specific to the type of data presented in the column. ExtremeCloud IQ Site Engine tables may include a Filter Button, which is located at the top right corner of the table, or a Column Filter, which is located in the column heading drop-down list.

Filter Button Function

Use the Filter button to perform several filter functions:

If no filters are currently active, a message states there are no active filters.
To add filters to the table, expand the Add Filter field.
1. Select a column label on which you want to add a filter.
  
  Note: The filter function is not available for some table columns. If a column cannot be filtered, the column label will not be included in the Add Filter drop-down list.
2. Enter the filter value in the filter value field.
  
  The type of filter available depends on the data displayed in the column.

5. To save your filter value and apply the filter to the column, select Close.
  
  The column to which you have applied the filter is no longer included in the Add Filter drop-down list.
  
  Note: After a filter is applied to a column, the column label displays (depending on your browser) as italicized, or as underlined and italicized.
To expand or collapse the list of active filters, use plus and minus buttons () to the right of the Add Filter field.
To modify an active filter, change the filter value in the Filter definition field.
To remove an active filter, select delete () to the right of the filter.

The column from which you have removed the filter is again included in the Add Filter drop-down list.

Note: After a filter is removed from a column, the column label no longer displays (depending on your browser) as italicized, or as underlined and italicized.

Column Filter Function

You can filter the data in a specific column using the column heading drop-down list.

To display the drop-down arrow at the right of the heading, place the cursor over a column heading.
To display the drop-down list, select the down arrow.

Enter the filter value for that column in the field to the right of the Filters item.

Notes:

After a filter is applied to a column, the column label displays (depending on your browser) as italicized, or as underlined and italicized.

If you select the check box to the left of the Filters item, but do not add filter value, the column label is displayed (depending on your browser) as italicized, or as underlined and italicized, but no filter is applied.

There are several types of filters:

String Filter
Enter a text string in the filter field and select Close. Only data including that text string will display in the table.

For data that includes a site path or other kind of path:

Enter the site value starting with a backslash (/) to display table entries with the exact match of the site name.

Partial site names and site names with upper- or lower-case characters that do not match the site name are not displayed.
Enter the site value without starting with a backslash (/) to display exact matches to the Filter value site name, as well as site names that are partial matches to the Filter value site name, and site names with upper- or lower-case characters that may not match the Filter value site name.

Boolean Filter
Select from choices provided (for example, yes or no; true or false) and select Close. An example of a Boolean filter is the NAP Capable column in the Control > End-Systems tab table.

Date Filter
Enter a date range, using the After and Before date options, or select a specific date using the On date option. You can also select the calendar icon at the right of the field to select the date. Select Close. An example of the date filter is the First Seen column in the Network > Discovered tab table:

The date format you need to use for the date filter is determined by what was configured in the Administration > Options tab. A tooltip in the Column Filters window provides the format required for that date column filter.

Note:

For some date columns, the tooltip indicates that the date format may include m, d, or M. The letters in this field signify the following:

m = Month with the leading zero
d = Day with the leading zero
M = Three-letter abbreviation of the month (For example, October would be Oct.)

For some date columns, the tooltip indicates that the date format is n/j/Y. The letters in this field signify the following:

n= Month without the leading zero
j= Day without the leading zero
Y= Four-digit year

For example, a date in n/j/Y format would be 9/1/2019.

Numeric Filter
Select a numeric range, using the < and > options, or a specific number using =. You can also select a number from the drop-down list in each field. An example of a numeric filter is the Times Seen column in the Network > Discovered tab table.

List Filter
Select one or more entries to filter the column. An example of a list filter is the Stats Column in the Device List table on the Network > Devices > Devices tab.

Select the magnifying glass icon to open the Search bar. Enter the full or partial value you are searching for and select Search. Matching items are displayed in the table. Select the Reset button to clear the Search results and refresh the table.

	NOTE:	Not all fields in a data table are searchable. Place your cursor in the Search bar to display a tooltip which will indicate which fields in the table are searchable.

Paging Tool

Use the paging toolbar to navigate through the table pages. The paging toolbar provides four buttons that let you easily page through the table: first, previous, next, and last page. It also displays an indicator of the current and total number of pages. Enter a page number in the Page field and press Enter to quickly move to that page.

Select the Refresh button to update the data in the table.
