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.

Rate Comparison Parameters Form (SNMP Trap Incident)

[This is the Context-Sensitive Help topic for the Incident Config >>> Comparison Params form. Used in six contexts.]

Custom Incident Attributes (CIAs) are used as parameter values. Parameter values enable accurate identification of duplicate incidents. There are two categories of CIAs:

SNMP trap varbind values (Name = the MIB varbind identifier, Type = asn_*)
Custom attributes provided by NNMi (Name = cia.*, Type=String). See Custom Incident Attributes Provided by NNMi (Information for Administrators).

The group of available CIAs depends on which incident you are configuring for this Rate (for example, CiscoLinkDown). To see which CIAs are available, navigate to an Incident view, double-click an instance of that incident-type to open the Incident form, and navigate to the Custom Attributes tab. The items listed in the table are the CIAs for that particular incident-type. For example, all CiscoLinkDown incidents would have the same group of CIAs shown in the illustration below.

Note You can also use the CIA (varbind) position number.

To specify a CIA to use in the identification criteria for duplicate incidents:

Navigate to the Rate Comparison Params form.
1. From the workspace navigation panel, select the Configuration workspace.
2. Expand the Incidents folder.
3. Select SNMP Trap Configurations .
4. Do one of the following:
  - To create a new configuration, click the New icon.
  - To edit an existing configuration, select a row, click the Open icon, and continue.
5. On the form that opens, navigate to the Rate tab.
6. Locate the Rate Comparison Parameters table.
7. Do one of the following to specify which CIA:
  - To add a Custom Incident Attribute parameter specification, click the New icon.
  - To edit an existing Custom Incident Attribute parameter specification, select a row, click the Open icon, and continue.
  - To delete Custom Incident Attribute parameter specification, select a row and click the Delete icon.
In the Parameter Value field, type (or copy and paste) the exact text string from the Incident form, Custom Attribute tab, Name attribute value:
- NNMi-provided CIA value (see Custom Incident Attributes Provided by NNMi (Information for Administrators)).
- SNMP trap varbind identified by the Abstract Syntax Notation value (ASN.1).
Click Save and Close to save your changes and return to the previous configuration form.
