Search by Area and Port ID

You can also search for client IDs, or source IDs of client aliases, on a specific Area and Port ID. When you search for client alias source ID, it will search on both standard client aliases and equipment signalling aliases.

Use this format:

ClientID(Area)-Port

So for Client ID 1234, Area 5, and Port 01, you would search for:

1234(5)-01

A normal search for Client ID will show any matching areas and ports.
A normal search for Client ID will show any matching areas and ports.
A more specific search that includes the Client ID, area, and port ID.
A more specific search that includes the Client ID, area, and port ID.

You don't need to use both the Area and Port ID for the search. You can also search just for matching areas, or matching ports. If you leave out the Area part of the search, it will search only for Base Accounts. Here are a few examples:

Search PhraseResults
0004(3)Searches for client id of 0004, area 0003, any port.
0004(13)Searches for client id 0004, area 0013, any port.
