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 |

Configure the Connectivity to be Displayed for a Node Group Map
The Connectivity Tab of the Node Group Map Settings form enables you to specify the level of connectivity to be displayed on the Node Group map. You also specify the connections that you want to display.
Tip See also the nnmtopoquery.ovpl
Reference Page. Use this command-line tool to list all connected neighbor interfaces for a specified node.
-
Navigate to the Connectivity tab of the Node Group Map Settings form.
Note You can also access the Node Group Map Settings form from any Node Group Map by using the File → Open Node Group Map Settings option.
- From the workspace navigation panel, select the Configuration workspace.
- Expand User Interface.
- Select Node Group Map Settings.
-
Do one of the following:
- To create a Node Group Map Settings definition, click the New icon.
- To edit a Node Group Map Settings definition, double-click the row representing the Node Group Map Settings definition you want to edit.
- To delete a Node Group Map Settings definition, select a row and click the Delete button
- Navigate to the Connectivity tab.
- Configure the connectivity information for this Node Group Map Settings definition (see table).
- Click Save and Close to save and apply your changes.
Attribute | Description |
---|---|
Connectivity Type |
Connectivity Type determines the type of connectivity to display between nodes in the Node Group Map view. By default, NNMi displays the Layer 2 connectivity between nodes when displaying a Node Group Map view. Possible values include:
|
Only for Layer 3 or None Connectivity Types (Optional) | |
Add L2 Subnet Connections |
If you specify Layer 3 or None as the Connectivity Type, this option specifies that you want to include any subnet connections determined by IPv4 Subnet Connections Rules. See Configure Subnet Connection Rules for more information. |
Add L2 User Connection Edits |
If you specify Layer 3 or None as the Connectivity Type, specifies that you want to include any Layer 2 Connections added using the NNMi nnmconnedit.ovpl command to add or delete connection data. See Add or Delete a Layer 2 Connection for more information. |
End Points Filter (Optional) | |
Interface Group |
Use this option, if you want to reduce the connectivity endpoints on the Node Group Map. The Interface Group you select defines the Interface Group to which an interface must belong to be used to connect a Node Group to a Node Group or a Node to a Node Group. NNMi displays Layer 2 endpoints that are interfaces in the group. NNMi displays Layer 3 endpoints that are IP addresses associated with interfaces in the group. |
Node Group Connectivity (Optional) | |
Nodes to Node Group |
Select this check box if you want Node to Node Group connectivity to appear on the Node Group map. Note By default, this option is not enabled. |
Node Groups to Node Groups |
Select this check box if you want Node Group to Node Group connectivity to appear on the Node Group map. Note By default, this option is not enabled. |
Node Group Neighbor Connectivity (Optional) | |
Show Neighbor Connections |
Enabling will add additional selected one hop neighbors that are connected to nodes in the Node Group but are not themselves members of the Node Group. The icons for those one-hop neighbors appear with a gray halo around the icon, for example:
|
Node Group Filter |
Specify Node Group Neighbor filter to limit which one-hop neighbors display. If the specified Node Group contains Child Node Groups, NNMi ignores members of the Child Node Groups when applying the filter. To review the currently defined Device Filters, navigate to Configuration workspace → Object Groups → Node Groups. Select the appropriate Node Group definition and look on the Device Filters tab. Tip If this attribute value is empty, NNMi uses the direct members of Networking Infrastructure Devices Node Group (not any Child Node Group members). |
