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.
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. |
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 |

Include varbinds in Your Log Message Format
You can use varbinds in your message format to extend the amount of information presented. SNMP trap varbinds are identified by the Abstract Syntax Notation value (ASN.1).
To include a varbind in your Trap Logging Configuration message format, type the dollar-sign character ($)
plus any of the following
- Varbind position number or asterisk (*) to include all varbind values
- Object identifier (oid) of the varbind (useful when the varbind position number is not consistent among vendors)
The following table presents some example formats with the subsequent output.
Example Message Format | Output in Incident View |
---|---|
Possible trouble with $3 | Possible trouble with <varbind 3> |
Possible trouble with $11 | Possible trouble with <varbind 11> |
Possible trouble with $77 (where the varbind position 77 does not exist) |
Possible trouble with <Invalid or unknown varbind> 77
|
Possible trouble with $3x | Possible trouble with <varbind 3>x |
Possible trouble with $1.2.3.4.5 | Possible trouble with <value of the varbind with oid of 1.2.3.4.5> |
Tip NNMi provides an error message when a varbind cannot be found. For example, if you enter an unavailable varbind position, name, or object identifier (oid), NNMi returns an "Invalid or unknown varbind" error message.
