Step 16 (Optional) Some topology maps are so large and complex that it can be difficult
to find a specific signaling point or linkset.
If the signaling point or linkset is listed in the tables in the left pane of the
Topology Window, simply select the signaling point or linkset, and SGM
highlights it in the topology map.
If the signaling point or linkset is not listed in the tables, use the following
procedure:
a. Click the Find signaling points or linksets (binoculars) button in the
Topology Window, or select Edit > Find from the SGM Main Menu. SGM
displays the Find Signaling Points or Linksets dialog, which enables you to
find and highlight a signaling point or linkset in the Topology Window
b. In the Search string field, enter a character string for which SGM is to
search.
c. To search for a linkset, select the Linksets checkbox. To search for a
signaling point, select the Signaling Points checkbox, then select or clear the
Name and Point Code checkboxes, to further widen or refine the search.
d. Click OK to launch the search.
If no matching signaling point or linkset is found, SGM displays an
appropriate message.
If exactly one signaling point or linkset is found that matches the Search
string, SGM highlights the signaling point or linkset in the Tables panel of
the Topology window, and zooms in on the selected signaling point or linkset
in the topology map.
If more than one signaling point or linkset is found that matches the Search
string, SGM displays the Choose dialog, enabling you to select from a list of
the found objects. SGM then highlights the selected signaling point or linkset
in the Tables panel of the Topology window, and zooms in on the selected
signaling point or linkset in the topology map.
Step 17 (Optional) To scroll around in the topology map, click anywhere in the map, then
click the arrow, Page Up, and Page Down keys.
Step 18 (Optional) To redraw the topology map centered on a specific signaling point or
linkset, double-click on the signaling point or linkset in the topology signaling
point table in the left pane of the window.
