Editing Node Properties

right-click the node in a window, select Edit>Properties in the right-click menu.
SGM displays the Edit Properties Dialog for a Node (Figure 3-27).

By default, the Name field displays the node’s DNS name, as discovered by SGM.
However, if you modified your preferences to identify nodes by their
IP addresses, then that is how the node is identified in this field. For more
information, see the “Modifying Preference Settings” section on page5-3 .
You can also use the Name field to specify a new, more meaningful name for the
node, keeping in mind the following considerations:
•You can change an ITP node's name to a new name or IP address.
•A new name can be from 1 to 30 characters, and can contain any letters,
numbers, or special characters, but no periods (.). If you enter a name that
contains a period, SGM beeps and retains the current name.
