The search engine returns up to 15 items per type and should only be used where the expectation is for a small amount of records to be retrieved. For more extensive lists Filters should be used.
The Netspan search engine is designed to search for:
Network Elements
Topology Entities (Regions and Sites)
Classes and Profiles
Alarms.
A simple search is used to search the whole database for the Item. (the advanced search will only search defined areas of the database) Enter the Item to be searched (search string must be between 4 and 25 characters).
The search engine can search for partial strings. For example if 10.0.25 was set as a search string it would return all BSs with a IP address of 10.0.25 as the first three bytes of a IP address as in the result above.
Click the > to start search.
