Collapse and Expand the Traffic Tree

The manage tab displays a traffic tree on the left side of the window. PacketWise offers you a few ways to control which classes display on the traffic tree. If the tree has many classes, you may want to collapse parts of the tree so that you can focus on a single branch of the tree (such as Inbound, Outbound, or a particular folder).

Note: To perform this task from PolicyCenter, you must first select a group and/or unit configuration from the Group: and Unit: drop-down lists at the top of the page.

Collapse the Tree

To collapse a branch of the tree, use one of the following techniques:

• Click show/hide at the top of the traffic tree and select collapse inbound or collapse outbound from the list.  show screen
• Click the - to the left of the folder you want to collapse.  show screen

Expand the Tree

To expand a branch of the tree, use one of the following techniques:

• Click show/hide at the top of the traffic tree and select show all, expand inbound, or expand outbound from the list.  show screen
• Click the + to the left of the folder you want to expand.  show screen

Large Traffic Trees

If you have more than 2000 classes in your configuration, PacketWise does not display a traffic tree in the manage tab. Instead of the tree, the left window pane displays a scrollable list of all the classes on your unit. To narrow down this list:

1. Type the name of the link, folder, or class in the field Display only class names containing.
2. Click limit view. The list now displays only the classes that contain the name you entered.

To display the entire list after limiting the view, click display all.
