The Automatic Naming of Connections
About Admin’s naming convention for connections
Only when adding a site does Admin automatically name a connection in the Connection Name
box. Admin uses the site’s name, appends a stylized arrow and adds the connection type. See the
“Garage” example used in table
3–6.
Changing the Automatic Suffix in a Connection's Name
You can always rename a connection in full or partially, by typing in the Connection Name box.
1. While adding a site (as in
Naming / Renaming a Site, above) or updating one, click
in the “Connections to the Site” pane. The Add Connection dialog box appears. The
Connection Name box appends a stylized arrow and “Network” to the site’s name.
2. Admin automatically names the connection in the Connection Name box. You have the
option of keeping the name or of typing another.
3. An “Add Site / Update Site” window is displayed.
4. Click Close. The Sites tab appears.
Tip
When updating a connection, its name is not changed. You have the option of changing it.
