Global Search IntelliSense

Global Search is a main entrance for you to operate maps. It provides rich information in the intelligent prompt after entering the keyword. The information mainly include: input history, displaying intellisense when you enter a keyword with more than 2 characters, and the support for map and IPv6.

IntelliSense Detail

When you enter a keyword, the IntelliSense will provides the corresponding device, interface, device type, interface status and so on. The displayed information varies depending on the type of the entered content. Herr is an example when when a duplicate IP is matched.

The search scope is as follows:

• IP
  • Management IP
  • Interface IP
  • Virtual IP
  • One IP Table
• Hostname
  • Hostname
  • DNS Name
  • Path Name/Application Name

Some examples of IntelliSense are as follows:

Note: When you click the search box, if there is a historical search record, it will be displayed, otherwise, the IntelliSense will only be displayed when the input content exceeds 2 characters.

• Enter hostname:
  
  

  Note: Hove over a matched device entry, and you can click Map to draw the device on a map.

• Enter Map Name. The map name, page summary, editor, and last updated time are displayed.
  
  
• If the input item matches Internet Cloud or MPLS cloud, you can distinguish them by icon. Here is an example when Internet Cloud is matched.
  
  
• If the entered IP is duplicate IP:
  
  
• If the entered IP matches a device, and this device belongs to an HA group:
  
  
• If the entered DNS matches multiple items, the device corresponding to the DNS will be listed separately:
  
  
• If the input content is in IPv6 format, the corresponding device interface information will also be listed:
  
  

The matched items can be categorized as follows:

Map/Select Action Detail

In the IntelliSense, each item has a Map button. Some examples of displaying Map button are as follows:

• Search by virtual IP:
  
  
• Search by host:
  
  
• Search by duplicate IP:
  
  

Depending on the device type, the content displayed after clicking Map is also different:

Table1 - Mapping Actions per Device Type

Device Type	Map Action	Select Action
