Notes/Tips
Use specific filters to reduce large dataset load times
Consider exporting data for complex analysis rather than processing in-browser
The default "Last hour" filter helps focus on recent activity
Data Interpretation
0.0 Bytes Results: May indicate device connectivity issues or scheduled downtime
Large Data Volumes: High byte counts may suggest heavy usage or potential data anomalies
Error Bytes: Non-zero error bytes warrant investigation for network or device issues
Best Practices
Regularly monitor error metrics to maintain system health
Use the organization filter when managing multi-tenant environments
Export historical data periodically for long-term trend analysis and compliance reporting
