NetMRI FindIT is a search engine for retrieving information about network components. FindIT also provides a special limited-access operational role to users who need to use NetMRI to search for devices across the managed network, such as printers and end-host computers.

FindIT displays a single field for entering a search term. Unlike Web searches, results returned by NetMRI FindIT are divided into two categories—exact matches and close matches—to narrow the search.

To maintain simplicity, FindIT does not accept multiple search terms or enable the definition of complex search mnemonics. For instance, you cannot enter two MAC addresses, or an IP address and a device type, in the same search term. You can enter punctuation and special characters in search terms (such as a "." in an IP address), and if meaningful in the context of the search, FindIT will also use them as part of the term.

Also, note the following about the FindIt tool:

• FindIT only searches for and finds things that are inventoried in NetMRI.
• FindIT does not search forwarding tables.
• FindIT does not only search ARP tables when the advanced search criteria is are modified to request that.
