Viewing and Sorting Tabular Data
In large networks, some tables of data can grow to hundreds, thousands, possibly millions of entries. To help manage and interpret such potentially large volumes of information, Junos Space enables you to selectively view, sort and filter your tabulated data in the user interface as described in the following sections:
Viewing Tabular Data
Figure 1 shows an example of the Manage Users inventory in tabular view.
Figure 1: Manage Users Tabular View
By default, up to 30 lines of data display per screen. Use the Show items field to customize this value. If the screen size is too small to accommodate the selected entries, use the scroll bar to the right to access the remaining lines in the page.
Adjust column widths to your taste. Adjusted column widths persist on returning to the same screen even after logging out and then logging back in again.
To access a specific page, in the Page field, type the page number and press Enter.
Other table controls are described in Table 1.
Table 1: Table Controls
Table Control | Effect |
|---|---|
 | Advances to the next page of the table. |
 | Returns to the previous page of the table. |
 | Displays the last page of the table. |
 | Displays the first page of the table. |
 | Refreshes the table content. |
Sorting Tabular Data
You can sort data in some tables on a specific field. To do so, select the down arrow to the right of the column header and select either Sort Ascending or Sort Descending from the menu.
Figure 2 shows an example.
Figure 2: Sorting Tabular Data
The table immediately reappears with the rows sorted on the data in the selected column.
Changes in the sort order persist on return to the same screen.
Hiding Tabular Data
Some tables contain many columns of information which might not all be useful for a specific user or task. You can hide unwanted columns of information.
To hide unwanted columns of information, follow these steps:
- Select the down arrow to the right of the header in any column.
- In the drop-down menu, select Columns.
A submenu appears, as shown in the example in Figure 3.
Figure 3: Hiding Columns
- Clear the checkmarks for the columns you want to hide.
The deselected columns disappear immediately.
To make columns reappear, follow the same steps, and check the boxes of the columns you want to see.
 | Note: Columns that you hide or make visible will remain hidden or visible on returning to the same screen even after logging out and then logging back in again. |
