Editing multiple events

Use the Ctrl key or the Shift key in the Network IPS Local Management Interface to edit multiple events that are already grouped and filtered.

About this task

This task applies to security events, user-defined events, and response filters.

Procedure

  1. Do one of the following tasks:
    1. To select multiple events, press Ctrl, and then select each event.
    2. To select a range of events, press Shift, and then select the first and last events in the range.
  2. Click the Edit icon.
    Notes:
    • Every item that you edit is changed for every selected event.
    • A blue triangle icon appears next to any item in the selected events that has a different value. If you use this icon to change the value of a field, the value changes for all selected events and the blue triangle icon no longer appears next to the field. Example: If you select to edit two events and one has blocking enabled and the other does not, a blue triangle appears next to Block. If you enable the block response on the event that was originally disabled, then both events have blocking enabled, and the blue triangle disappears.
  3. Click OK.
