Filters

Filters provide a way for you to return a more finely-targeted set of data or to view the returned data in different ways. For example, the Call Diagnostic Summary Report enables you to filter on such things as the Registrar pool or Edge Server used in the session. You can also choose how data should be grouped. In this case, calls are grouped by hour, day, week, or month.

The following table lists the filters that you can use with the Call Diagnostic Summary Report.
