<![CDATA[Find MAC Address]]>Is there any way to pass this a partial MAC address and allow it to find all instances that match?  We typically record the last 4 of a MAC address for certain things as it provides enough uniqueness where needed.  Have tried regex and other variations, seems to want all 12 hex digits.  Just curious.

it requires at least 3 bytes of MAC address. Idea was to limit potentially very broad search. But I think we can change it if there is a use case for such wide searches.

Best regards,

MAC address entered is incorrect.  Please enter correct MAC address.

This is 4.1.283 console / server.  Thanks!

macAddr != NULL and macAddr like "*A1:12"

You can save predefined queries for there, they will be accessible in Configuration -> Object queries. It's possible to add input field there so that when you run the query, it opens dialog where user can enter search string. But a few more clicks to access this then Tools -> Find mac address.
