Search Drop-Down List
The search bar displays a list as you type text in the search box. The items that contain the characters that you type are populated in
the search drop-down list. Each item in the drop-down list includes two icons and the name of the item. The rst icon indicates the
item category (such as Device, Launch Wizard, and so on). The second icon indicates the state of the item (such as Normal,
Critical, or Warning). Immediately after the two icons, the name of the item is displayed. Moving the mouse pointer over an item in
the drop-down list, displays a tool tip. The information displayed in the tool tip varies based on the item. For example, moving the
mouse pointer over a device displays the following: Name, Type, Health Status, Power Status, IP Address, Service Tag, and MAC
Address. Selecting an item displayed in the tool tip performs the default action.
