You can use the Device Search window to quickly find a specific device or many devices in Service Center.

You can also search for devices using the quick search field on the title bar of all Barracuda RMM pages. For more information, see Searching for a Device Using Quick Search.

Each time you perform a search, the results appear on a Results tab. You can have a maximum of six Results tabs. If you perform seven searches, the sixth Results tab shows the results for the seventh search.
