Host Table
5-143
Files of Type
This box shows the type (extension) of the files currently displayed in the File Name list. The
default should be .hst. If the desired file type “filter” is .hst, but it is not shown, open the drop-
down list and select the .hst type. If the desired file type “filter” is .ntp, open the drop-down
list and select the .ntp type. Alternatively, select All Files (*.*) to see all types.
Save
The Save command stores the current host/NTP file.
If the file has not been saved at least once, Toolbox opens the Save As dialog box where you
assign a name to the host/NTP file. The name may contain up to 6 characters to ensure
backward compatibility.
If the file has been saved at least once, Toolbox just saves the file.
Save As
The Save As command saves the current host/NTP table under a different file name.
Generally, you’ll use this command when you want to create a host table/NTP file that is
slightly different from an existing one (load the existing file, save it under a new name, and
make the changes).
The command opens the dialog box shown below. This dialog also appears when you request
to save a host/NTP file for the first time.
Dialog box parameters
Use the parameters in the order specified below. Normally you’ll only use the File Name
parameter.
Save In
If the currently displayed directory is not the correct one, double-click the drive letter at the
beginning of the Save In list and locate the drive/directory. To access sub-directories, double-
click parent directories.
