Top values in ranked reports (first variable) | In ranked reports, (“top x” report types, such as Top Attack Type), you can specify how many items from the top rank are included in the report. For example, you can set the Top Attack URLs report to include up to 30 of the top x denied URLs. The remaining results are combined under “Others.” Note: Reports that do not include “Top” in their name display all results. Changing the ranked reports values does not affect these reports. |
Top values in ranked reports (second variable) | Some ranked reports rank two aspects. For example, the Top Sources By Top Destination report ranks top source IP addresses for each of the top destination IP addresses. For these double-ranked reports, you can also configure the rank threshold of the second aspect. |
