tool to manipulate objects from one of several databases. Use the drag control at the right of

Event Log Tool
The event log tool displays different filtered views of the SNMPc event log. If you can’t see
the event log tool, click View, Event Log Tool to display it.
• Select the Current tab to show unacknowledged (current) events. These events have a
colored box at the left side of the log entry. The color of map objects is determined by the
highest priority unacknowledged event for that object.
• Select the History tab to show all events, including acknowledged and unacknowledged
events.
• Select one of the Custom tabs and use the right-click Filter View menu to specify what
events should be displayed for that tab.
• Double-click an event entry to display a Map View window with the corresponding
device icon visible.
• To quickly view events for a particular device, first select the device and then use one of
the View Events buttons (or the View, Active Events and View, History Events menus).
This will show the device events in a separate window in the View Windows area.
• To remove one or more events, select the events and click the Delete key.
• To acknowledge (remove current status of) an event, right-click on an event entry and
click Acknowledge.
• To completely clear the event log, click File and Clear Events.

results. This area uses the Multi-Document-Interface (MDI) specification to display multiple
windows at the same time. Click Window and select Cascade, Tile Horizontally or Tile
Vertically to rearrange the windows in the View Window Area in a way that makes them all
visible.
