The Network Status Report allows ICS Area Managers to monitor network status across their areas and manage Internet Service Provider (ISP) information for any building in your area. This guide provides step-by-step instructions for generating reports, adding ISP information, and using advanced features like saved searches.

=== Generating a Network Status Report ===

====== Step 1: Access the Reports Section ======

# From any page, navigate to '''Reports''' in the main menu
# Select '''Network Status''' from the dropdown menu

====== Step 2: Configure Your Search ======

# The report will initially appear blank until you run a search
# Click the Search button to begin
# To configure your '''search''' by area:
## Select the By Area section of the accordion
## Select your area from the "'''By Area"''' dropdown menu
## Choose the area you manage (the area you want will most likely have DTA in parentheses next to the name)
## Select the desired countries and Property Use Type
## Select the desired Network Status
## Click Search
# To configure your search by address:
## Select the By Address section of the accordion
## Enter an address
## Select a distance to expand or restrict the results
## Select a Network Status
## Click Search

====== Step 3: View Your Report ======
After running the search, you'll get a list of countries, and there may be data in the list that is not correct. The report is organized by property name and country. The Network Status Report will display all networks in your selected area with their current status information.

=== Using Saved Searches ===
The saved search feature allows you to create custom reports for specific networks you want to monitor regularly.

====== Creating a Saved Search ======

# From your Network Status Report results, select specific networks you want to track
# Check the boxes next to the networks of interest
# Click '''Save'''
# Give your saved search a descriptive name (e.g., "Offline Africa West")
# Click '''Save''' to confirm

====== Using Saved Searches ======

# Navigate to '''Reports → Network Status'''
# Click on '''Saved Searches'''
# Select your previously saved search from the list
# The report will run showing only the networks you had selected

'''Note''': Saved searches store the specific networks you selected, not the search criteria. The report will show status information for your selected networks.

=== Understanding the Report Results ===
'''The Network Status Report shows you:'''

* Status of networks in your area
* Which networks may need attention
* ISP information (when properly configured)
* Network connectivity status

====== When you see the final report page, this indicates that: ======

* Your search was successful
* ISP information is properly configured
* Networks are reporting status correctly

===== If Saved Searches Don't Work as Expected =====
1. Confirm you selected specific networks before saving

2. Verify the saved search name is descriptive

3. Remember that saved searches show current data for selected networks
