Managing Connections › Look Up a Device Name

Look Up a Device Name

Being able to associate a name with a host, rather than just a series of numbers (the IP address) can make the host easier to identify. For example, the real name of the host may give you information about where that host is located—although this depends on the naming standards used by your enterprise.

To look up a device name

1. Enter NL beside the appropriate connection on the connection list.

   The response appears on the third line of the connection list panel.
