CAUTION
Altering the appearance of the ASEM involves altering
.properties files located in the properties sub-folder of the
application installation. Nortel recommends that copies of the
original .properties files be saved in a separate folder before
altering them. These original files can be restored by replacing the
altered the files in the properties directory.
Modifying Label Appearance
The alias.properties file lists the correspondence between MIB
variables and the label used to describe that value in the application. To
change the label used, perform this procedure:
Step Action
1Open the alias.properties file in a text editor. For Nortel
180 and AD Series switches, the file is located in <ASEM
installation directory>/properties/Tigon. For Nortel
Application Switches, the file is located in <ASEM installation
directory>/properties/aws24.
2All entries in the file are listed in the following format:
MIB Variable=Description
Change the Description portion to reflect the new label to be used
in the application.
Note: Changing the MIB Variableportion causes the application
to use the system default value forthe label.
3Save the changes made to the file. These changes are displayed
the next time the application is started.
