Page | 18 Naming Your Loom
This creates a URL that you type in to the address bar on a web browser. It
will be easy to remember, unlike the IP address. Your loom name can be
changed at any time.
The LOOM URL will be http:// + [loom name] + .local
Example:
Loom name = myloom
Loom URL = http://myloom.local
Note:
The name must be a solid piece of text with no spaces. If a space is added to
the name, the URL will only be the letters before the space even though the
“Loom Name” shows the complete name with the space.
GOOD EXAMPLES: myloom, my_loom, my-loom
BAD EXAMPLES: my loom (loom would only show up as “my”)
Note:
If you ever forget the name of your loom you can always connect with the IP
address.
1) Once you have AVLDrive open, select the “Options” tab.
2) In the box for Loom Name, enter the name you’d like to use for
your loom. If the box is not blank, delete the existing name and
enter the new text of your choice.
