Creating a configuration file using WinConfig

6.7.2.1Host edit window

Each host in a configuration is represented in the host edit window by a host icon. A label underneath the icon shows the name of the host.

Each new host is generated using the pop-up menu of the right mouse button. However, newly generated hosts do not yet have a label underneath the icon showing the host’s name. WinConfig arranges all host icons one below the other in the host edit window.

The host parameters can be edited by clicking on the host icon with the left mouse button. The following dialog window is opened via the host icon:

Figure 7 Dialog window: Host parameters

The Last Port, Last Key and #T, #N, #F input fields cannot be edited. WinConfig calculates their values automatically.

The following table describes the dialog window entries; the “Statement” column specifies the corresponding statement that is generated by WinConfig when saving to a configura- tion file.
