List Views
The List View workspace allows you to view and create specialized lists of the devices in
your central node database. A default set of views is provided for you; you can also create
your own views, selecting both the nodes and the information about each node you wish to
display.
Figure 2-3 illustrates a sample List View workspace and an associated List View
window.

List View features include:
Multiple List Views
You can create multiple List Views to view portions of your node database. The read-only
All Nodes List View displays every viewable node in your database, and a set of
pre-defined List Views displays various subsets of that database; you can customize this
feature by editing a pre-defined view and/or creating an entirely new one to display node
information in the way that works best for you. Each List View also provides an Excluded
Nodes feature, which allows you to remove one or more nodes from a view without
removing them from the database or changing the parameters of the view’s filter.
