Lumeta reports are designed to identify and the list network assets that share a characteristic of interest, or one you name. They provide a tabular display of data pulled from the Lumeta system's database. Reports serve as an important resource for detailed network information.

About Reports
Following are report basics:
- Reports are available in real-time, which means that the data on the current state of your network is retrieved from Lumeta's data store and immediately displayed on your screen––as soon as you click a report name. If you come back to a displayed report after some time away from your desk, however, you will need to click Refresh to update the report to its real-time state.
- Lumeta reports pertain to one zone that you select from the Zone drop-down at the top of the page. If you are interested in a multi-zone or hybrid view of your network, see Dashboards.
- All reports, both standard and customized, are listed alphabetically by name on the left-hand side of the Browse Real-Time page and can be filtered by name using the Search bar.
- Standard Lumeta reports cannot be deleted. Customized reports––which are those you've added––can be edited or deleted. See Adding & Managing Reports for how-to procedures.

Report Scheduler
The Report Scheduler enables you to schedule the running of a particular kind of report, indicate how often the report should run, and who should receive it via email message. This configuration is saved to a file, the name of which you also specify.
