Alias Name — An optional name that is entered using the Properties dialog box. It provides an alternate name for the product if you want to override the Host Name and System Name values.
Host Name — The name that the Management application obtains from the product during discovery. This may be the Domain Name System (DNS) name of the product, but may come from other naming services, depending on the configuration of the operating system on which the Management application is running.
System Name — The name the Management application retrieves from the "sysName" SNMP MIB variable during discovery. This name corresponds to the value specified by the hostname command in the product configuration file.
The Management application displays the first name it finds for the product in the following order: Alias Name, Host Name, System Name. The Alias Name takes precedence over Host Name, which takes precedence over System Name, and so on.
