Searching the Help
To search for information in the Help, type a word or phrase in the Search box. When you enter a group of words, OR is inferred. You can use Boolean operators to refine your search.
Results returned are case insensitive. However, results ranking takes case into account and assigns higher scores to case matches. Therefore, a search for "cats" followed by a search for "Cats" would return the same number of Help topics, but the order in which the topics are listed would be different.
Words and Phrases
| Search for | Example | Results |
|---|---|---|
| A single word | cat
|
Topics that contain the word "cat". You will also find its grammatical variations, such as "cats". |
|
A phrase. You can specify that the search results contain a specific phrase. |
"cat food" (quotation marks) |
Topics that contain the literal phrase "cat food" and all its grammatical variations. Without the quotation marks, the query is equivalent to specifying an OR operator, which finds topics with one of the individual words instead of the phrase. |
Using Boolean Operators
| Search for | Operator | Example |
|---|---|---|
|
Two or more words in the same topic |
|
|
| Either word in a topic |
|
|
| Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase |
|
|
| Topics that contain one string and do not contain another | ^ (caret) |
cat ^ mouse
|
| A combination of search types | ( ) parentheses |

Prerequisites
Review the NNMi Deployment Reference, NNMi Release Notes, and NNMi Support Matrixfor details on management server specifications and NNMi installation.
To use native IPv6 communication, the NNMi management server must be a dual-stacked system, meaning that it communicates using both IPv4 and IPv6.
This text is used in the following locations:
IPv6 chapter in the Deployment Reference
UCMDB integration chapter in the Integration Reference
Note If you have IPv6 discovery configured on NNMi, and are using the Universal CMDB (UCMDB) integration, the UCMDB Discovery and Dependency mapping (DDM) import task fails. You need to disable IPv6 discovery to use the UCMDB integration with NNMi.
Additional requirements for IPv6 include the following:
- You must enable and configure IPv4 on at least one network interface.
- You must enable IPv6 and have a global unicast address or a unique local unicast address configured on at least one network interface that is connected to the IPv6 network you want to manage.
- You must configure IPv6 routes on the NNMi management server to enable NNMi to communicate with any devices you want NNMi to discover and monitor using IPv6.
Note You can use an IPv4-only NNMi management server, but doing so will limit NNMi from fully managing IPv4/IPv6 dual-stacked devices. For example, if you use an IPv4-only management server, NNMi cannot discover IPv6-only devices, cannot discover using IPv6 seeds and hints, and cannot monitor for faults on devices having IPv6 addresses.
The DNS server used by the NNMi management server must resolve hostnames to and from IPv6 addresses. For example, it must be able to resolve to and from an AAAA DNS record. That means the DNS server must map a hostname to a 128-bit IPv6 address. If an IPv6-capable DNS server is not available, NNMi will still function correctly; however NNMi does not determine nor display DNS hostnames for nodes using IPv6 addresses.
