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`

User interface elements are described below:

UI Element	Description
IPv4 Ping Sweep Strategy for Data Center Ranges	Defines the strategy for discovering IPv4 addresses using the ICMP protocol. Select one of the following options: No Ping Sweep Ping Sweep within the ranges of the Management Zone Ping only discovered Class B or C Networks Ping only discovered Class C Networks Note These options apply only to ranges that are configured as Data Center type. However the Ping Sweep within the ranges of the Management Zone option applies when performing discovery of Client type IP ranges without using SNMP. For more information, see the topic "How to Discover Client IP Ranges Without SNMP" in the Universal CMDB Data Flow Management section of the UCMDB Online Help.
Use Last Successful Credential	Specifies whether to use the last successful credential. If this check box is selected, the discovery activity always uses the last successful credential, and the value of Universal Discovery Protocol Connection Order (or the udaConnectionOrder parameter value of the Host Connection by Shell job) is ignored.
Universal Discovery Protocol Connection Order	Specifies the order in which the Universal Discovery Protocol in used to connect to remote machines when the Host Connection by Shell job runs. Select one of the following options: First. The Universal Discovery Protocol is used first. Last. The Universal Discovery Protocol is used last. Note Applicable only when the Universal Discovery Protocol is selected for use on the Define Credentials page. This setting is applied when the Host Connection by Shell job connects to the remote machine on the first attempt only.
Ping all IPv6 addresses within the ranges of the Management Zone	Enables a ping sweep of all the IPv6 addresses in the Management Zone.
IP/MAC Address Harvesting	Uses the SNMP protocol to connect to network devices to read ARP cache tables and then build associations between IP addresses and MAC addresses. If this check box is selected, enter a delay (in milliseconds) between SNMP request messages. Note If this option is selected, also select Discover Network Devices in Client IP Ranges. Only applicable if Client is the range type. Ensure that SNMP is configured on the DHCP server.
Discover Network Devices in Client IP Ranges	Select this check box to use SNMP to discover network nodes that are SNMP enabled. Note Only applicable if Client is the range type. Ensure that SNMP is configured on the DHCP server.
Resolve DNS Names	Select this check box to resolve DNS names to IP addresses. If this check box is selected, enter fully qualified names or IP addresses of DNS servers you want to use for resolution. Use commas to separate each server. Note If the check box is selected, but no name is entered in the field, the DNS server that is configured for the Data Flow Probe is used.
Microsoft Windows Domains	Select this check box to discover Windows domain controllers.
