Searching the node text in the Structure Browser tree

You can search for a value within the nodes in the Structure Browser tree.

You can enter a string to be matched against the following set of predefined database fields:
  • ifName, ifDescr, ifAlias, ifTypeString, ifPhysAddress, accessIPAddress, accessProtocol, duplex, and entPhysicalVendorType in the interface table
  • address, protocol, subnet, and DNSName in the ipEndPointTable table

To search within the Device Structure Tree in the Structure Browser:

  1. Enter the search string in the field located to the right of the Expand All Expand All button and Collapse All Collapse All button buttons.
    Note: The search string is case-insensitive and can be a complete value (for an exact search) or a wildcard. The supported wildcards, which can be appended to a search string, are * and %. For example, to search for IP addresses that begin with 172, you can enter 172* or 172%.
  2. Ensure that the root node is selected in the tree.
    Tip: The tree is traversed from the selected node, with the search being performed from top to bottom.
  3. Click Find/Find Next Find/Find Next button in turn to find the first and subsequent matching nodes.
    Each matching node is selected in turn within the tree, and the associated information is displayed in the Component Detail Table.
