displayed next to the options.
3. Click OK.
4. Click the Apply Filters button.
Event Manager displays the events that meet the criteria selected in the Event Filters pane.

problem. For example, for a Brocade switch
one or more physical fabric objects (device
port, switch, or fabric) have disappeared.

problem. For example, for a Brocade switch
a device connected to the switch has gone
off line.
All Displays all events, regardless of severity
level.

cleared.
