3.3 Creating Targets
An Administrator creates Targets corresponding to the physical servers connected
to the IP devices, explained in section 7, and also to Targets corresponding to e.g.
printers, firewalls, PDUs and IDSs etc accessed via Access Services - see page
14. In the example below, four Targets are created and given identifying names.
They can be named by location, server type or operating system or any other
unique feature associated with that particular server.
