Configuring Director Identification
This section describes the procedure for configuring parameters that

To configure identification for the director, follow these steps:
1. Click Configure on the Product Manager menu bar and select
Identification on the drop-down menu.
This displays the Configure Identification dialog box (Figure 5-1).

Configure Identification Dialog Box
2. Configure the parameters as follows:
• Name — Enter a name for the director, up to 24 alphanumeric
characters. Note, however, that typical screen sizes generally
limit the display to 17 characters when the name appears
under the product icon on Connectrix Manager screens.
If Network Address is specified for the Connectrix Manager display
option, the full product name appears in a pop-up box if flyover is
enabled and you move the cursor over the product icon.
As an example, the name could reflect the director’s Ethernet
network domain name service (DNS) host name.
This name will appear in the following locations:
– Director icon label on the Connectrix Manager screens, if
the display options are set to display product names
– Product Manager window title panel
– Identification table at the top of the Hardware view
– Director Properties window
