Way of working with log entries
 The maximum number of entries stored in the centralized log is 50000. The maximum number of
entries that can be displayed is 10000. In case the number of log entries is greater than 10000,
use filtering and sorting capabilities to display the desired log entries in the table. You can also
hide the unneeded columns and show the hidden ones. See the Filtering and sorting log entries
(p. 322) section for details.

panel is collapsed by default. To expand the panel, click the
chevron. The content of the panel
