b. Click Allow target devices with the same name to be merged into a single target device if
you wish to merge a target device that has multiple connections into a single target device.
c. Under Allow target devices that contain default names to be added for these type of
connections, you may enable one or more connection types. Any target devices that
contain default names in the managed appliance and support the enabled connection type
in the managed appliance will be added to the DSView 3 software database.
This option has no effect when adding a DSI5100 appliance, since default target device
names are not supported. A target device is named when it is added as a BMC port using
the Add IPMI BMC Wizard.
