Include DNS Mapping
If you have uploaded a CSV that maps IP addresses to their respective DNS names, checking the Include DNS mappings option includes a table of this map in your report’s output. For more information on uploading IP-DNS mapping data, see Viewing, Filtering, and Reporting on NetFlow Data.
Time Range
Click the calendar icon located to the right of the Time Range field if you would like to set a duration other than the default “Last 2 hours” for the report.
Resource Groups / Resources
From the Resource Groups or Resources field, limit the resources to which this report will apply by designating one or more resource groups or resources. If you designate resource groups, the report output will include all NetFlow-enabled devices within the specified group(s). You can use explicit names or glob expressions in these fields.
Note: Multi-glob lookup is available in this field. You can select a combination of both glob and distinct values to specify your resources/resource groups. For more information on LogicMonitor’s support of glob, see Using Glob throughout your account.
