Searching for Strings

You can search for strings in the syslog. You can use various criteria such as case sensitive, whole words only, and regular expressions (regex).

To search for a string:
1. On the toolbar, in the search field, click the magnifying   button, and then from the drop-down list, choose any of the following options:
Case Sensitive: Search string is case sensitive.
Whole Words Only: Searches for the whole string (not parts of it).
Use Regular Expressions: Searched string is a regex. For example, the regex "(Outgoing|Incoming) SIP" searches for all occurrences of "Outgoing SIP" and "Incoming SIP".
Unfiltered Completion: If not selected, when you start typing a search string, a drop-down list appears, offering you suggestions of previously typed search strings with the same typed letters, as shown in the following example:

A white rectangular object with green and blue text

Description automatically generated

If you select this option (check mark), regardless of what you type, the drop-down list includes all your previous search strings.

2. In the search field, enter the string or regex.
3. Click Find Next icon (or Shift + F3 for find previous).
