Locating Ethernet Segments Using the HPOV Locate Option

A quick way to locate a specific Ethernet Segment in a large system with many Ethernet Segments is the Network Management Platform (e.g., HP OpenView) Locate service.

To use the Locate option:

1In an OpenView window, select Locate->Objects->by_Symbol_Label. The Locate by Label dialog box is displayed.

2Type in the Ethernet Segment port address and click Apply.

A list of occurrences of the label in all OpenView Windows is displayed.

3Highlight the Ethernet segment (port address) you want to locate.

The selected Ethernet segment will be highlighted in the VLAN and/or LAN Emulation window that is open on your display.

Drag-and-Drop Ethernet Segments Between VLAN Windows

The “Drag-and-Drop” method is also available for moving Ethernet segments between VLANs. With this method you open both source and destination VN-VLAN-name windows and drag an Ethernet segment from the source window and drop it into the destination window.

Perform the following steps to use this method. Refer to the previous method for details:

1Open the source VN-vLAN_name or WG-name window and locate the Ethernet segments to be moved by their IP addresses and port numbers.

2In the VN-vLAN_name or WG-name window, select the Ethernet segment icons to be moved.
