General Rules

Cisco PVM reports adhere to the following rules for hyperlink access among reports:

Each time you see a Host IP address, you can drill down to the host details.

Each application allows you to drill down to the application details.

Each time you see a NAM name, you can click on the name to open a new window for the individual
NAM GUI and automatically sign him in.

Real-time charting drill-down: each time you see an “R” hyperlink, you can click on the “R” to open
a new window to monitor this report row details graphed in real-time. Drill-down capability is
available on both Data Source view and All NAM view, for all tabular reports.

Trend Reports drill-down: each time you see a “T” hyperlink, you can click on the “T” to drill down
to this report row details graphed against the selected time period. This drill-down capability is
