Description
Here are the steps that helps in Adding/Editing/Running the Schedule Reports in NSM.
Here we can see that the schedule report can be added for Specific Tenant, Group or for Specific firewalls.
We can have these Reports run on a Daily, Weekly or Monthly Basis. We can also run it On-Demand.
Resolution
You can set up Flow report or CTA (Capture Threat Assessment) report or Management report.
You can also create scheduled reports for a firewall in the Firewall View (Home | Schedule > Reports Rules) page. The procedure for creating scheduled reports in the Firewall Viewis similar to creating a scheduled report in the Manager View as given below.
To create a scheduled report
1. Login to NSM, In Manager View-> Reports->Rules->Click +Add.
