Overview
Summary reports are reports containing other reports and are useful for presenting a range of data relevant to a particular device, interface, or aspect of your network in a single report.
While any Statseeker user can create new summary reports, custom summary reports cannot be shared and Statseeker users can only view those summary reports that they create themselves.
Note:
- To create a summary report that can be shared across Statseeker users, see Custom Reporting: Embedded Reports
- Viewing summary reports requires access to the Summary > Top X Network report
- Editing summary reports requires access to the Admin Tool
