When using the predefined filters, you can limit the events you see in 
Event tab by specifying criteria such as IP address, date, or text in the log 
message. You can use advanced filters to further limit the events you see. 

1 In the Event Source box, type an event source name or part of an event 

source name. You can type more than one name or partial name. 

For example, type 3wxm If you want to see only 3wxm events. If you 
have a WX named wx1, type wx1 to see only events related to wx1. To 
see events related to all WX switches whose names start with wx, type 
wx.
