Viewing message details

To view message details:

    The details pane is displayed to the right of the message list, with the fields categorized in tree view.

    You can display the log details pane below the message list by clicking the Bottom icon in the log details pane. When the log details pane is displayed below the message list, you can move it to the right of the log message list by clicking the Right icon. This is sometimes referred to as docking the pane to the bottom or right of the screen.

The log details pane provides shortcuts for adding filters and for showing or hiding a column. Right-click a log field to select an option.

If the log message contains UTM logs, you can click the UTM log icon in the log details pane to open the UTM log view window.

If the log message contains IPS signature information, you can click the IPS signature link under Attack Name to view the IPS Signature details in a dialog window.
