Customizing the IP Phone Outage Status Display
Customizing the IP Phone Outage Status Display
After setting up a view, you can customize your IP Phone Outage Status display by selecting specific
views and using filters:
• Views control the device groups that appear on the IP Phone Outage Status display. See Selecting
Views for the IP Phone Outage Status Display, page 5-5 .
• Filters control the specific phone model you monitor, along with alert severities and their status. See
Filtering IP Phone Outage Status, page 5-5 .
Selecting Views for the IP Phone Outage Status Display
When you select Monitoring Dashboard > IP Phone Outage Status to open the IP Phone Outage
Status display, all available views are listed in the view pane on the left side of the display. If the views
shown do not meet your needs, you can create a new view as described in
Managing Views, page 6-1 .
The view pane is updated every two minutes. You can have up to 18 views in the view pane in a single
IP Phone Outage Status display. See
Managing Views, page 6-1 for information on how to manage your
views.
Filtering IP Phone Outage Status
Filters allow you to manipulate the IP Phone Outage Status display to show alerts based on their
extension number, phone model, and activity type.
Note Once you use an alert filter, the filter is applied to all of your views until you change the filter; other
clients are not affected. When you close the IP Phone Outage Status display, your filters are lost. Filters
do not affect severity icons in the view pane.
Step 1 Select Monitoring Dashboard > IP Phone Outage Status. The IP Phone Outage Status display opens.
Step 2 Click the filtering button in the tool button area at the top-right of the display.
