Enter the host name
A host name allows you to refer to a device by a name rather than an IP address.
Network Discovery uses the host name to refer to itself in the e-mails it sends.
Note: Define a domain name server before changing the host name.
The Host name page has two modes: prompted and manual.
In prompted mode, Network Discovery will try to read its own host name from
the domain name server. If Network Discovery finds a host name matching its IP
address, you will be asked to confirm that the match is correct.
In manual mode, Network Discovery has failed to find a match for its own IP
address. You will be given the option to enter a host name.
To change the host name
1 Click Administration > Appliance management > Host name.
If the Current host name is correct, click Confirm. No further action is
necessary.
If you want to change the Host name, go to Step 2.
2 Enter the new host name.
3 Click Change.
