Settings

The Settings panel provides access to dashboard configuration and Kubeshark operational controls.

Settings Panel


Targeted Pods

View and modify the pods being captured by Capture Filters. The targeted pod list shows all pods currently matched by the filter rules.

Targeted Pods

The list updates in real-time as pods start and stop. Only traffic from targeted pods is captured and available for viewing.

Modifying Capture Filters

From the Settings panel, you can adjust:

FilterDescription
Pod regexPattern matching pod names
NamespacesInclude specific namespaces
Excluded namespacesExclude specific namespaces
BPF overrideExplicit BPF expression

Note: Changes made via the Settings panel are temporary and apply only until Kubeshark is restarted. For persistent configuration, use Helm values.

Note: Capture filters differ from Display Filters. Capture filters control what traffic is captured; display filters control what is shown in your browser tab.
