Clicking on the red links of the Diagnostics screen will open a new tab with the parameters displayed in the mouseover.

Clicking on the blue links of the Diagnostics screen will filter the diagnostics

During the creation of a new Baseline/Threshold Alert an Alert Category is assigned.

Usually the Alert category is "Auto" and this will tell CySight to run diagnostics on an Alert. The Alert Templates are assigned an "Auto" alert category automatically
