The Export Data Page

It is possible to choose between the following options:

  • Export all the hosts data
  • Export all the local hosts data
  • Export all the remote hosts data
  • Export a specific host data, by specifying its IP or MAC address and optionally a VLAN

The JSON data can be downloaded and easily analyzed.

The Delete Data Page

The Delete tab is similar to the export tab. It provides a convenient way to delete all the data associated to a particular host or group of hosts (via a /24 network CIDR). It is also possible to delete all the data associated to the active interface.

The Manage Data page is accessible when a non system interface is selected. On the system interface, the delete data functionality can be directly accessed via the Settings menu. In this case, it is possible to:

  • Delete the system interface data
  • Delete the inactive interfaces data. This can be very useful to free some disk space for old interfaces.
