Network Scope — Select to display the events count of the products present in the selected

NOTE
Application events excluding object level are displayed only if All is selected in the Network Scope.
The Events widget only includes events from products that are in your AOR.
The x-axis represents the number of occurrences of a particular event severity during the selected
time period. If you pause on a bar, a tooltip shows the number of events with that severity level
during the selected time period. Also, for each severity, the cumulative number of traps, application
events, and security events is reported next to the horizontal bar. If Syslog messages are included,
then they are included in the count. To conserve space, the number is shown as is or truncated to
the nearest 1,000 ("K") or 1,000,000 ("M").
By default, Syslog events are included in the summary; however, because Syslog events occur at a
much higher frequency than other events and therefore could skew the bars for the other events,
you can exclude Syslog events. If they are excluded, they will not be displayed in the legend. Users’
selections are persisted (per user per server).
