How do I navigate the host hierarchy?

The Filter bar at the top of the screen provides a way to navigate through the network hierarchy (see File>Configure to see how to group network devices). At the top level, a list of Zones is shown, once you have selected a zone, the view will drill down to only show information from the selected zone, and a list of Groups will appear. Select a group and the view will drill down to only show the information from the selected group and a list of Agents will appear. Finally if you select an agent, the lists Hosts being monitored by the agent will be displayed. Click on the links at any level in the path and you will move back up the tree to that level.

Click on the Explore button to see long term trends (see Sentinel:Report>Explore). If a single agent has been selected an Agent Details button will appear.
