Searching for NEs

In this user interface, you can specify the search domain, such as the network segment and the IP address of the GNE, and search the information of NEs that reside in the search domain but are not added. By using the search NE function, you can also create NEs in batches on the U2000 Web LCT.

Navigation Path

In the NE List, click NE Search > NE Search.

In the NE List, click NE Search > Advanced Search.

NOTE:

Before searching for NEs, add the corresponding gateway NEs to the U2000 Web LCT. Otherwise, logging in to the searched NEs may fail.

Search NE IP auto discovery Search by user port	Search NE: This mode is used to search out all NEs in the specified network segment. IP auto discovery: This mode is used when you fail to enter the correct network segment. By IP auto discovery, you can obtain the IP addresses of the GNEs and search out all NEs that connect to the GNEs. This mode applies only to the GNEs that connect to the U2000 Web LCT directly. If they are not directly connected, the same IP address range must be used. Search by user port: This mode is used to search out NEs whose service ports are directly connected to the U2000 Web LCT.
