You can use the Quick Search or choose search filters, to filter any table of information.
The Quick Search allows you to filter tables on of the tabs in the Infrastructure, Applications, and Storage views, as well as several other lists such as IP pools and organizations. To narrow your view, enter a few characters in the search field. The quick search uses a default set of the most common properties for each list. Hover over the icon to learn what properties are searched.
