Thank you Bruce!

Herman,

Actually you can use wildcards. It's just called pattern matching.

Here you go. Just copy/paste this into the smartset editor in text mode.

This will find Interfaces and Networks, but NOT Nodes unless the Nodes with 172 and 192 Addresses do not resolve.

(('IP Address' ~ '^172\.) || ('IP Address' ~ '^192\.'))

I'm not sure how useful that will be...

This will find them all in the Topology database:

ovtopodump -rl | grep -Ep "(IP ADDR: 172|IP ADDR: 192)" | pg

I'm trying to create a smartest that will contain two separate ip addresses that begin with 172 and 192

I know I can't use wild card, but when I tried using ip address attribute and searching for string 172 , I get "172 was not found on the list".

What attribute do I need to use when creating a SmartSet to find all devices beginning with that IP?

Thank you!

Herman
