    Page tree

    You can customize the display of the event list on the Events page to suit your event monitoring and management preferences. These settings are individual, user-based preferences and apply to all pages where the Events page is used, like Device Details and Monitor Details.

    To customize the display of the events list, on the Events page, click the icon, make the desired changes, and click Save to apply the settings.

    The following table describes the settings that you can change:
