How to start with F5 BIG-IP ASM quickly?

I would like to know the quick overview of the functions under:   Security --> Event Logs Security --> Reporting   And on the basis of Event logs, how we can tune the ASM?

On the navigation pane:

 

Security --> Event Logs --> Application --> Requests

 

Select: Illegal Requests + All Security policies --> Go

 

A bulk of events come with different marks say

 

Blocked Request (Red Circle) Illegal Request (Red Flag) Truncated (White Square) Unblock Legal (Green Tick)

 

The highlighted one with ** means all these are events blocked or this is suggestion to block these events or requests.

 

Please help in understanding these all notations.
