In Figure 9-11, we show the fully qualified name and the port number 8452 separated by a

For ease of identification, you could add a suffix such as 0 or 1 to the selected fully qualified
name, for example, MC_0 for the default MC as shown in Figure 9-11. Then bookmark it for
ease of use. When assigning the number, we recommend that you make the last field of the
optional MC only one digit higher than the default MC.
