Renaming Tree Branches in Facility View
To rename branches under Facility View, select the one to be renamed and
right-click. On the context menu that appears, choose
Rename
. In standard
Windows fashion, the name is selected and you can type a new or revised
name.
Note
Existing devices can not be re-named in the Facility View. They must be
renamed in either the IP or Device View. Changes will be reflected in Facility
View entries for that device.
Deleting Tree Branches or Devices in the Facility View
To delete any of the branches or devices in the Facility View, select the one

error message appears.
