The Switch View opens.
2. Click the Events button from the Switch View.
The Switch Events window opens (see Figure 22 ).
3. Optional: Click the column head to sort the events by that column. Drag the column divider to resize a

You can also filter switch events, as described in ” Filtering fabric and switch events ”.
Filtering fabric and switch events
You can filter the events in the Fabric Events window and Switch Events window by time, severity, message
ID, and service. You can apply either one type of filter at a time or multiple types of filters at the same
time. The Switch Event and Fabric Event views both have a Filter button. Click the Filter button to open the
Filter Events dialog box (see Figure 23 ).
When a filter is applied, the Show All button is active in the events views and the type of filter applied is
identified at the top of the events views (see Figure 22 ). To un-apply a filter, click the Show All button in the
events window.
NOTE: For two-switch configurations, clicking the Events button for a given switch automatically filters out
switch service events from the other switch. Chassis service is shown in both events lists.
