Set a Time Range in Unified Events

Configure time range in unified events to view firewall events for a specific period. When you change the time range, the unified events table automatically refreshes to reflect your changes.

The time range that you select does not apply to other tables in the event viewer. For example, a time range that you select when viewing connection events does not apply to the unified events table and vice versa.

Procedure

Step 1

Choose Analysis > Unified Events.

By default, the unified events table displays events from the past hour.

Step 2

Click the current time range.

Step 3

Choose one of the following:

  • If you want to see events for a fixed time range, click Fixed Time Range and choose the Start time and End time.

    Tip

    Click Now to quickly set the current time as the End time.

  • If you want to configure a sliding default time window of the length you specify, click Sliding Time Range.

    The appliance displays all the events generated from a specific start time; for example, 1 hour ago, to the present. As you refresh event views, the time window slides so that you always see events from the last hour.

Step 4

Click Apply.
