1. Open the AWS Systems Manager console at [https://console.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/](https://console.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/).

1. In the navigation pane, choose **Explore nodes**.

1. For **Filter view**, select one of the filter options and optionally further refine the report:
   + **Managed nodes** – In the search (![The search icon](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/userguide/images/search-icon.png)) box, you can select a property and delimiter, such as `Node type = Managed EC2 instances`.
   + **Operating systems** – In the **Filter Operating system versions** list, you can select an OS version number. In the search (![The search icon](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/systems-manager/latest/userguide/images/search-icon.png)) box, you can select a property and delimiter, such as `Node type = Managed EC2 instances`.

After optionally filtering the list, you can view details about a specific managed node by choosing its ID in the **Node ID** column. From that detailed view, you can perform several actions on the node.
