On the Topology Map, rest the pointer over a product icon, port, or connection.
The pop-up window containing the product, port, or connection information displays.
For the product icon, the pop-up window displays the display name and IP address of the device.
For the connection, the pop-up window displays the IP address and port number for each device at
either end of the connection. If one of the connections is a cloud, the port number does not display.
Name settings
You can use Names as a method of providing familiar simple names to products and ports in your
SAN. Using your Management application you can:
•
Set names to be unique or non-unique.
•
Fix duplicate names.
•
Associate a name with a product, port WWN, or Fabric Assigned WWN currently being
discovered.
•
Add a WWN and an associated name for a product or port that is not yet being discovered.
•
Remove or disassociate a name from a WWN.
Setting names to be unique
You can edit duplicate names so that each device has a unique name. Note that the Duplicated
Names dialog box only displays when you set names to be unique and there are duplicate names in
the system.
