Creating a new report filter

Use Historical Reports to create a new report filter. Filters 
are stored in the WatchGuard installation directory, in the 
subdirectory report-defs with the file extension .ftr. 

From Historical Reports:

1

Click Filters. Click Add.

2

Enter the name of the filter as it will appear in the Filter 
drop-down list in the Report Properties Setup tab. 
This name should easily identify the filter.

3

Select the filter type.

An Include filter displays only those records meeting the criteria 

set on the Host, Service and User tabs. An Exclude filter displays 

all records except those meeting the criteria set on the Host, 

Service, and User tabs.

4

Complete the Filter tabs according to your report 
preferences.

For a description of each control, right-click it, and then click 

What’s This?. You can also refer to the “Field Definitions” 

chapter in the Reference Guide.

When you are finished modifying filter properties, 
click OK.

The name of the filter appears in the Filters list. The Filter 

Name.ftr file is created in the report-defs directory.

Editing a report filter

At any time, you can modify the properties of an existing 
filter. From the Filters dialog box in Historical Reports:

1

The Report Filter dialog box appears.
