Changing Object Properties
Attributes
1. Use the Edit/Properties menu to change the
attributes of one or more selected objects. To edit
multiple objects, all selected objects must be of
the same type such as subnet or device.
2. Set the object name in the Label edit box.
3. Set the object type in the Type pull-down. The
object type can only be changed for network type
objects (Ring, Bus, Network).
4. For device objects, set the object IP Address in the
Address edit box. This can be in dot format or a
DNS name. You can also append a UDP port
number to a dot-notation IP address (for example,
198.22.11.22.168).
5. For Goto objects, set the name of the subnet that
the Goto jumps to in the Address edit box.
6. Set an alias name for a group of similar device objects in the Group edit box.
7. For icon type objects (Subnet, Device, Goto), set the icon in the Icon edit box. This is normally
set to
AUTO.ICO so that an icon is selected automatically based on the device SNMP Object
Identifier.
