Using the IP/MAC Address Finder
This chapter describes how to use the IP/MAC Address Finder applet for:
• Creating search requests for locating MAC or IP addresses on the network.
OVERVIEW OF THE IP/MAC FINDER APPLET
The IP/MAC Address Finder applet lets you search for network addresses (MAC or IP
addresses) and identify the switch and port on which the address resides. The Search
Tool lets you configure and start a search task, view the status of the task, and view the
task results. The task specification and results are kept in the task list until you delete
them, or until you log out of ExtremeWare Enterprise Manager client.
When you click the Find MAC button in the Navigation Toolbar, the main IP/MAC
Address Finder page is displayed as shown in Figure 11-1. Initially there are no search
requests displayed.
