IP catalog

The IP catalog is an enterprise-wide catalog that can be used to search and filter groups of IPs. The IPs visible to any given user are filtered by the permissions that have been granted to that user. The IP catalog can be accessed from any of the Helix IPLM Clients. See Accessing Helix IPLM for more information.

IP naming and filtering

The IP name can be used to filter the output, as well as labels that have been applied to the IPs in the catalog.

An IP Version (IPV) is identified using the following convention: 

<Library Name>.<IP Name>@<Version Number>.<Line Name>

For example: tutorial.padring@1.TRUNK

By omitting portions of the fully qualified name (FQN) the name can be used as a filter to the 'pi ip list' command and in various other contexts.

Given the example FQN 'tutorial.padring@1.TRUNK':

Permissions and listing IPs

To see any given IP or Line a user must have read permissions to the IP and at least View permission to the Line of the IP. Commands or displays that show the resources of a given IP will filter the list of resources if the user does not have View or Read permission to the Lines of those IPVs. Notice is given to the user that some resources are not displayed due to permission restrictions. For more about setting and displaying permissions, see Permissions management.
