Example combination:

-
Tag: tagging-prod
-
Status: Active

Step 4: Clear the filter

Click X next to each field to remove that individual condition.
The filter does not modify Security Groups — it is for search purposes only.
Some fields may not appear if the Security Group has no corresponding data (e.g., empty Tag).
If the list shows no results, check whether too many filter conditions have been entered.
