Simple Event Filters
The default general-purpose filter type.
Exclusion Event Filters
Allow the exclusion of selected event types, in addition to the options given by the Simple Event Filters.
Threshold Event Filters
Allow the selection of an interval or count threshold that must be met, in addition to the options given by the Simple Event Filters.
