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 |

RAMS MPLS WAN (NNMi Advanced)
Route Analytics Management System (RAMS) for MPLS WAN enables you to gather network connectivity information for enterprises that have multiple sites connected by a WAN through Internet Service Providers (ISPs). These ISPs use MPLSMultiprotocol Label Switching within their own networks. MPLS enables the ISPs to support large numbers of Virtual Private Networks (VPNs). Although RAMS does not have visibility into the routing structure within the ISP network, it displays and analyzes routing topologies that extend across the WAN.
RAMS MPLS WAN is integrated with NNMi and is important if your enterprise has multiple sites that are connected by a Layer 3 VPN. Each of your sites will typically have one or more Customer Edge (CE) routers that are connected to the ISP’s Provider Edge (PE) routers. The ISP handles all the routing (including BGPBorder Gateway Protocol), as well as the VPN tunneling through its own network. With MPLS WAN, you can use RAMS to monitor all the sites and provide enterprise connectivity information. The topology view shows how an enterprise site is connected to multiple sites through an MPLS WAN cloud.
Although detailed routing through the ISP is not available, RAMS indicates whether there is connectivity between the ISP’s PE routers. When one of your sites advertises routing prefixesA network protocol technique used to shorten or filter the amount of required routing information in each packet by declaring a prefix for an entire group of packets. This prefix also indicated the number of bits in the address., you can determine whether the ISP is correctly passing all the routing prefixes (not dropping any or sending additional prefixes).
For more information on MPLS WAN, see the Route Analytics Management System User’s Guide, which is available at: https://softwaresupport.softwaregrp.com/.
