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 |

IP Address Ranges
The IP address of a discovery hint must match an Include in Rule entry in the IP address range list. If there are no included IP address ranges in an auto-discovery rule, then all address hints are considered a match. (For this case, see Tips for Configuring Auto-Discovery Rules.) Additionally, the hint must not match any entry marked Ignored by Rule. If all checks successfully match, this rule’s configuration is used for handling the hint.
- If you are not discovering some expected devices, check your configured IP ranges to ensure that the IP addresses for those devices are included in a range and not ignored by a rule with a lower ordering number.
- If you are discovering more devices that you want, modify the include ranges or add ignored ranges for the IP addresses of the devices that you do not want discovered. Also, determine if Discover Any SNMP Device is enabled.
