Configure Object Filters

You can filter on as few or as many criteria as you want. The more categories you filter by, the fewer results you should expect.

Procedure

Step 1

In the left pane, click Objects.

Step 2

Open the filter panel by clicking the filter icon at the top of the page. Uncheck any filters that have been checked to make sure no objects are inadvertently filtered out. Additionally, look at the search field and delete any text that may have been entered in the search field.

Step 3

If you want to restrict your results to those found on particular devices:

  1. Click Filter By Device.

  2. Search all the devices or click a device tab to search for only devices of a certain kind.

  3. Check the device you want to include in your filter criteria.

  4. Click OK.

Step 4

Check Show System Objects to include system objects in your search results. Uncheck Show System Objects to exclude system objects from your search results.

Step 5

Check the object Issues you want to filter by. If you check more than one issue, objects in any of the categories you check are included in your filter results.

Step 6

Check Ignored issues if you want to see the object that had issues but was ignored by the administrator.

Step 7

Check the required filter in Shared Objects if you are filtering for objects shared between two or more devices.

  • Default Values: Filters objects having only the default values.

  • Override Values: Filters objects having overridden values.

  • Additional Values: Filters objects having additional values.

Step 8

Check Unassociated if you are filtering for objects that are not part of any rule or policy.

Step 9

Check the Object Types you want to filter by.

Step 10

You can also add an object name, IP address, or port number to the Objects search field to find objects with your search criteria among the filtered results.
