gpolladmin: Security Section Help

The security section of gpolladmin can be accessed by using the "Security" link located in the menu at the top of the page. The security page shows which polls currently have security logging enabled, and also shows a graph of how many entries have been logged for each poll. The Statistics section uses a similar form, but this one has some extra options dealing with the type of error that was recorded. The security form has the following sections:

Poll number

Limit the results to one or more polls. Separate multiple polls with commas, for example "1,2,5,10,11,12"

Error code

Show only certain error codes. As above, separate multiple numbers with commas. Leave this blank and run a query to all the available error codes.

Subnet

Limit the results to a certain subnet. This is basically a prefix search of the numbers in the IP address. For example, entering a twelve and a dot ("12.") would limit the results to IP addresses that begin with a twelve.

Maximum number of IPs to show:

Limit the number of results returned when using the "IP address" option below. the default value is 50, valid answers are from 1 to 999. This is ignored for anything except "IP address" below.
