7.2.3 Port Names

To help remember which computer is attached to a particular port, every port can be given a name. This field allows the Administrator to create, modify, or delete port names. To configure a port name:

1.Click once on the port you want to edit, wait one second and then click again. (Alternately, use the up and down arrow keys to move the highlight bar to the port, and then press the F2 function key.)

Note: This is not a double-click. It involves two separate clicks. A double-click will switch you to the device attached to the port.

After a second or two, the bar changes to provide you with a text input box:

2.Key in the new Port Name, or modify/delete the old one. The maximum number of characters allowed for a Port Name is 15. You can use all letters, numbers, and symbols on the typewriter keys of keyboards with PC US English layout.

3.When you have finished editing the port name, press [Enter] or click anywhere outside of the input box to complete the operation.

7.3 Port Operation

Because the methods used to access the target device(s) are the same for the local console as for the Windows Client, the procedures are discussed in the Windows Client and the Java Client chapters.
