Managing Device Filters

You can filter which devices are displayed in a device list by creating and applying device filters. When a filter is applied, only the devices meeting the criteria associated with that filter are displayed. Filters are available for the lists in the Mobile Device Inventory, Infrastructure Inventory, and mobile device groups.

3   Click the Selection Criteria button (in the upper right of the box).

The Selection Criteria Builder dialog box appears, allowing you to create a filter based on device characteristics. See Building Selection Criteria for more information on using selection criteria.

4   After you choose selection criteria for the filter, click OK to return to the Modify Device Filters dialog box.

The selection criteria appear in the Filter Expression text box.

5   Click Add Filter.

The filter is added to the Existing Filters list and is available to use.

6   Click OK.

To apply a filter to a device inventory:
