Default search scope: ± 2 hours.

Select a Time Period

Use the latest device data saved during the specified historical period.

For example, there are two benchmark tasks over a specified time, and task1 was executed earlier than the task2. The task1 successfully retrieved the device configuration and ARP but did not get the MAC table, while task2 successfully retrieved ARP/MAC table but did not get the configuration, then the system will use the configuration retrieved in task1 and ARP/MAC table retrieved in task2 as the data source.
