Hi Stéphane,

you can already do that. Have a look at the TopologyModelNameString
attribute.

Cheers,
Joern

PS: I think too this could be a good feature, but I can't see a use case
which is not already covered by the available attributes.

Hi,

One feature that I would like to see is the abilities to use the relation
in search.

For example, I have multiple Static Global Collections for all my location
(North, South, …) . I want to build a Dynamic Global collection which
contains all Ethernet ports with speed >= 100 Mbits of location North.

Stéphane.

Hi Gang,

Topic of discussion…

One of the projects for a future release is an enhancement of the core
search capabilities. We are considering extending SPECTRUM search abilities
in the following ways … adding support for wildcard/regular expressions,
the ability to limit results to device models only and making the action
and relation searches available to global collections.

We would like to hear your stories about when Search Manager did not help
you effectively manage the network for find the information you were
looking for.  Specifically we want to make sure that the enhancements we
are working on will improve your ability to locate data in SPECTURM and
that we understand the searching capability that is important and even
necessary for you.

Below are some examples of searches that could be satisfied with the
improvements we are considering.



1.       Leveraging SPECTRUM Relations in searches:


a.       Example Search – Find all devices in IP range X to Y and Condition
== Green and Location contains “lab”


2.       Leveraging Wildcard searches


a.       Example Search – Return all devices that have been named to
indicate they are in a lab


                                                  i.      Return all
devices where Model Name Contains ‘*lab*, case insensitive


3.       Perl Compatible Regular Expression searches


a.       Example Search – Show all devices that have a name matching the
regexp ‘ˆ[0-9]{2}[a-zA-Z]+[Ll]ondon.*Switch.*    (Switches in London
possibly)


                                                  i.      Return all
devices that where model name contains the regular expression.  The regular
expressions says, starts with a two digit number followed by any number of
alpha characters until London or london is seen, then followed by any
number of any characters until the word Switch is seen.

Specific examples of searches you would like to be able to do would be most
helpful.

Feel free to send your feedback directly to me.

Jerome
