3.5.1

Assigning target device names

Use the Names window to identify individual target devices by name rather than by port
number. The Names list is always sorted by port order. Names are stored in the KVM-
IA, so even if you move the cable or target device to another ARI port, the name and
configuration are recognized by the appliance. If a target device is turned off, you will
not be able to modify the name of the applicable KVM-IA.

3.5.1.1

Accessing the Names window



Press Print Screen to start the OSCAR interface. The Main window opens.



Click Setup - Names. The Names window opens.

If the target device list changes, the mouse cursor will turn into an hourglass as the list is
automatically updated. No mouse or keyboard input is accepted until the list update is
complete.

3.5.1.2

Assigning names to target devices



In the Names window, select a target device name or port number and click Modify.
The Name Modify window opens.



Type a name in the New Name field. Names of target devices can be up to 15
characters long. Valid characters are A through Z, a through z, 0 through 9, space,
and hyphen.



Click OK to transfer the new name to the Names window. The selection is not
saved until you click OK in the Names window.



Repeat steps 1 to 3 for each target device in the switching system.



Click OK in the Names window to save the changes, or click X or press Escape to
exit without saving changes.
