3738.0. "Alternate id for bridges, stations etc...?" by COMBAT::FORSBERG () Tue Sep 15 1992 05:56

    
    I have noticed that you can define the use of an alternate identifier 
    for node4- and snmp-entities. Is this (or will it be in the future) also 
    possible for bridges, stations, terminal servers etc? What I would like 
    to do is to register for example a bridge using a DNS fullname, but be 
    able to display it on the map using a shorter name, a synonym if you
    like.
    Some of our customers have asked for this possibility.
    
    
    Regards,
    		Annika

	I think what you mean is what is called a synonym. Terminal servers, and (I suspect) the other entites you mention all already have alternate identifiers. The problem for you is that they are all equally unfriendly and all too long :-) I'll put this on the incredibly long wish-list for TSAM... -Dave
