Using the Find Function in Most ASDM Panes
Some ASDM panes contain tables with many elements. To make it easier for you to search, highlight,
and then edit a particular entry, several ASDM panes have a find function that allows you to search on
objects within those panes.
To perform a search, you can type a phrase into the Find field to search on all columns within any given
pane. The phrase can contain the wild card characters “*” and “?”. The * matches one or more characters,
and ? matches one character. The up and down arrows to the right of the Find field locate the next (up)
or previous (down) occurrence of the phrase. Check the Match Case check box to find entries with the
exact uppercase and lowercase characters that you enter.
For example, entering B*ton-L* might return the following matches:
Boston-LA, Boston-Lisbon, Boston-London
Entering Bo?ton might return the following matches:
Boston, Bolton
The following list shows the ASDM panes in which you can use the find function:
