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	`AND` `and` `+` (plus symbol) `&` (ampersand)	`cat AND dog` `"cat food"+milk` `"cat food"&"dog food"`
Either word in a topic	`OR` `or` `\|` (pipe)	`cat OR dog` `cat \| dog`
Topics that do not contain a specific word or phrase	`NOT` `not` `!` (exclamation point)	`NOT cat` `! dog`
Topics that contain one string and do not contain another	`^` (caret)	`cat ^ mouse`
A combination of search types	`( )` parentheses	`cat + (dog \| mouse)` `cat \| dog + (! mouse)`

PseudoWire VC Form

The PseudoWire VC form provides details about the selected PseudoWire Virtual Circuit (VC). This topic includes the following sections:

LSP-PseudoWire Map
VC LSPs Tab
Status Tab
Conclusions Tab
Incidents Tab
Custom Attributes
Registration Tab

Basic Attributes
Attribute	Description
Id, Encapsulation Type, PE 1, PE 1 Address, PE 2, PE 2 Address, L2VPN Type, and Status	The attributes listed in the PseudoWIre VC Form are same as available in the PseudoWIre VC Inventory. For more information, see PseudoWire VC Inventory.
Management Mode	The NNM iSPI for MPLS supports management of Pseudowire VCs. Possible values are: Managed – The selected Pseudowire VC is managed. Not Managed – The selected Pseudowire VC is not managed. To modify the Management Mode, select "Managed" or "Not Managed" respectively from the Management Mode list of the Pseudowire VC form.
Management Type	Inheritance type for the selected Pseudowire VC. An MPLS object inherits management mode of its container object. Possible values are: Node Inherited - Inherits management mode of the corresponding node. VPLS Inherited - Inherits management mode on the corresponding VPLS VPN. VPWS Inherited - Inherits management mode of the corresponding VPWS VPN. Self You cannot change Management Type of an Not Managed PseudoWire VC to Self if it is VPWS Inherited or VPLS Inherited.
VPLS Name	The name of the VPLS VPN. Click (the Lookup icon) to show more information about the VPLS VPN.
VPWS Name	The name of the VPWS VPN. Click (the Lookup icon) to view more information about the VPWS VPN.
Discovery State	The state of the PseudoWire VCs. Possible values are: Fully Discovered - Both the endpoints (PE1 and PE2) are discovered and the status of both the LSPs is normal. Partially Discovered - One of the endpoint is discovered and other endpoint is unknown, not managed, or not discovered. For example, if PE1 is discovered and PE2 is unknown, not managed, or not discovered. You can only get PE1 information and PE2 IP Address. This state is partially discovered.
Create Time	The time when the PseudoWire VCs was discovered.
Status Last Modified	The status of the PseudoWire VC is calculated whenever there is a change in topology. Status Last Modified shows date and time on which the status was last set.

LSP-PseudoWire Map

You can launch MPLS LSP view by selecting PseudoWire VCs. To launch an MPLS LSP path view:

Click PseudoWire VC Inventory from the MPLS workspace.
Select a PseudoWire VC for which you want to launch LSP.
Click Actions and select MPLS Lsp Path View. This will launch the LSP path view between these VC LSPs in a different browser window.

Analysis Pane

Information shown for PseudoWire VC form is same as that in PseudoWire VC Inventory. For more information, see PseudoWire VC Inventory.

VC LSPs Tab

The PseudoWire VC Form provides details about the selected PseudoWire VC. The VC LSPs tab provides the list of the VC LSPs participating to form a PseudoWire VC.

Basic Attributes
Attribute	Description
Attributes	The attributes listed in the VC LSPs tab are available in the VC LSP form. For more information, see VC LSP Form.

Analysis Pane

Analysis Pane displays a quick summary of a particular object without opening a form view. The Analysis Pane remains blank until an object is selected in the inventory.

The following information is shown in the Analysis Pane of VC LSPs tab:

VC LSP Summary:

Create Time
Status
Source
Source Addres
Destination
Destination Address
Management Mode

Status Tab

The PseudoWire VC form provides details about the selected PseudoWire VC. You can use the Status tab to view the status summary the selected PseudoWire VC.

Overall Status Attributes
Attribute	Description
Status	Overall status of the PseudoWires VC. The overall status is derived by the status of the VC LSPs participating to form a PseudoWire VC. Possible values are : Normal - The status of both the LSPs is Normal. Critical - The status of any one or both the LSPs is Critical. Unknown - The status of any one or both the LSPs is Unknown.
Last Modified	Date and time on which status was last set.

Status History
Attribute	Description
Status	List of last thirty status updates for the selected PseudoWire VC.
Time Stamp	Date and time when the status of the PseudoWire VC is last set.

Analysis Pane

Analysis Pane is not implemented for the Status tab.

Conclusions Tab

The PseudoWire VC Form provides details about the selected PseudoWire VC. The Conclusions tab shows the results of the overall derived status. You can view a quick summary of the status and problem description for the selected PseudoWire VC.

Conclusions Table

Attribute	Description
Status	Overall status of the PseudoWire VC. For information about the possible status values, see PseudoWire VC Form: Status Tab.
Time Stamp	Date and time on which the status of the PseudoWire VC is last set.
Conclusions	The conclusions are set by the Causal Engine after the status calculation. Possible conclusions are: MplsPseudoWireVCDown MplsPseudoWireVCNormal MplsPseudoWireVCUnknown The PseudoWire VC down conclusion generates the incident to send the alert for the status attribute. For example, MplsPseudoWireVCDown generates MplsPseudoWireVCDown incident

Attribute

Description

Status

Overall status of the PseudoWire VC. For information about the possible status values, see PseudoWire VC Form: Status Tab.

Time Stamp

Date and time on which the status of the PseudoWire VC is last set.

Conclusions

The conclusions are set by the Causal Engine after the status calculation. Possible conclusions are:
