After the Search Service Application is created, you can Search for each site, but it is necessary to set a Search Center to process requests in a centralized manner. The Search Center provides default Farm Search settings for other sites. At the Site Collection and Site levels, you can configure Site Settings to submit search requests to the search center, so that you do not need to configure each site.

 

How to Create a search center?

Log on to SharePoint Central Administration with Farm Administrator and find Create Site Collections:

In Template Selection, choose Enterprise-> Enterprise Search Center for template:

Enter other necessary information, such as title, url, and administrator, and click OK.

 

Such a Search Center is ready. Then you need to associate it with the Search service Application.

In the Central Administration, find the Search Service Application and click the manage on ribbon to go to the Management page. Click Seta Search Center URL:

 

On the pop-up page, enter the URL of the Search Center you just created. Note that pages must be added to the URL:
