Search Syntax
You can enter free-text criteria to filter lists.
Some lists (such as hosts, connections, monitoring, and events) support searching by specific criteria, with syntax like the following:
(criteria=value)
You can include multiple criteria in a search:
(criteria1=value1)(criteria2=value2)...
You can specify multiple values either by repeating a criteria with different values, or by delimiting the values with a pipe:
(criteria1=value1)(criteria1=value2)
(criteria1=value1|value2)
Use backslash to escape parentheses and other reserved characters in values:
(criteria=value with \(parentheses\))
Search examples:
Find connections with the tag Name=Example Host -
(Tag=Name\=Example Host)
Find host entries containing both "test" and SSH service(s) -
test (Service=SSH)
Find hosts with SSH or RDP services -
(Service=SSH|RDP)
Type an open parenthesis in the search to see all the supported criteria. Note that not all pages support criteria.
