Once you have created a custom report profile, you can set up schedules to run the report automatically at specified time intervals. You can also configure Firewall Analyzer to automatically email the report once it runs.
| Note: | Scheduled reports are generated and emailed only as PDF files. If you are viewing PDF reports on a Windows machine, make sure you have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed. |
Click the Schedule List link under the Reports tab takes you the All Schedules page to view the list of reports that have been scheduled so far. The list shows all the schedules that have been set up so far, along with the report profile they are associated with, the type of schedule, and options to delete the schedule.
Click the Delete icon to delete a schedule. The report profile associated with this schedule will no longer be generated automatically at the specified time interval.
The enable/disable icon against a schedule is a toggle icon used to enable or disable a schedule.
