Compass Tab
All Search

The All search on the Compass tab lets you collect and display address data for any device(s) or device group(s) selected in the left panel. Data is collected from all the MIBS that Compass has implemented. The following table lists the MIBs used to collect information for each column in the Results table.

Port Name ifName Table
MAC addressMap Table, ctAlias Table, dot1dTpFdbPort Table, dot1qTpFdbPort Table, dot1xAuthSession Table, etsysDot1xAuthSessionStats Table, etsysMACAuthenticationSession Table, etsysMACLockingStation Table, etsysPwaAuthSession Table, hostAddress Table, ipNetToMediaPhysAddress Table

The All search is similar to the MAC address search, except that it does not use a search parameter. If you need to filter the address data, use one of the specific Compass searches, or the Auto search.

To access the All search on the Compass tab, select the desired device(s) or device group(s) in the left panel, and select the Compass tab in the right panel. Then select the All Search Type from the drop-down list. If the bottom section of the Compass tab containing the Results and Search Log tabs is not visible, click the panel control up button   at the foot of the tab.

Click areas in the window for more information.

Search Scope
The scope within which the search will be performed, based on the device(s) or device group(s) selected in the left panel.
Search Type

Search Log Tab

This tab displays a log of the progress of the search and notifies you of unsupported devices. See Search Log Tab for more information.

Results Tab

This tab displays the results of the Compass search in table form. See Results tab for information on using the Results Filter, and the other right-click menu options offered on this tab.

Device
This column lists any network element which is aware of the device(s) in the search scope selected in the left panel. For example, the network element associated with the device may be connected to the device, or it may have contacted the device, or the device may be on the path to a device the network element contacted.
Port
Port number of the port on the device.
Active
The checkmarks in this column indicate the entries with the most relevant information. Entries are considered Active if they exist in the 802.1X MIB, PWA MIB, dot1dTpFdb table or the dot1qTpFdb table. To display all the Active entries together, click the Active column header to sort the entries.
MAC Address
MAC address of the device.
Address
Address (IP, UDP, etc.) of the network element. The next column (Address Type) tells you what type of address this is.
Address Type
Type of address displayed in the Address field. Possible values include: IP, MAC, UDP.
Host Name
Host name associated with the network element's IP address, if applicable.
User Name
User ID associated with the network element, if applicable.
State
Current operating state of the network element. Possible values are:

State Meaning
initialize an initialize is in progress returning the port to an initial state
active connection is active
inactive, connection is inactive
disconnected, no user is logged in.
authenticating a login is in process and has not yet completed
authenticated a user has successfully logged in
held the port is locked down because the number of failed login attempts has exceeded the allowable limit.
connecting connection in process
aborting indicates an authentication timeout
forceAuth the port is always authorized
forceUnauth an administrator has terminated the user session
authSuccess means authentication was attempted and succeeded
authTerminated a session was active or in progress and was subsequently terminated
<blank> State was not retrieved
VLAN Name
Name of the VLAN associated with the network element, if applicable.
VLAN ID
Unique identifier of the VLAN associated with the network element, if applicable.
Filter ID
The filtering database used by the VLAN.
Create Time
Date and time the network element was first created on the network.
Multicast Group
Multicast group address, if applicable.
Source
Source (MIB, table) of the information displayed for the network element.
