This section describes the format for Monitor properties in the rtview.properties file. All properties have the prefix sl.rtview which is followed by a property name = value pair: sl.rtview.<property_name>=:<value>. For example, to specify the Data Server port number globally:
sl.rtview.dataserver.port=3278
Filters are available to apply limit the scope to which a property is applied. Filters precede the sl.rtview property prefix followed by a period (.): <property_filter>.sl.rtview.<property_name>=:<value>.
For example, to specify the Data Server port number to only proxy clients, we use the proxyclient filter: proxyclient.sl.rtview.dataserver.port=3278
The following Monitor property filters are predefined and apply automatically depending on what tool is being executed:
Filter |

agentsender |

You can define your own property filters and use them as prefixes in your properties files. To select a property filter on the command line use the -propfilter argument. For example, to apply the AlertCollector filter: -propfilter: AlertCollector
