  • 1.  Display System or DNS Name Label in Topology View

    Posted Mar 21, 2017 06:06 AM

    Hello,

    We use IMC ver 7.3 with 300 switches and routers.
    The topology view displays only IP address. (to view the system name I need to press the right button) How can I display the system name instead of the ip address in the topology view?

    Many thanks,
    Pablo

    Not sure if it will work, but you could try going to System -> System Settings, and look at the option for Device Info Display:

    1. Select an option from the Device Info Display list to configure how device information is displayed: by IP address, device label, or both. Options include Device Label (IP), Device Label Only, and IP Only

    Maybe I'm misunderstanding?

    But if you right click on a blank area you can set the device label to show any of ip, lable, sysname, vendor, type or model. See image

    For me toplolgy view remembers this setting, and I do have different settings for different topology views.

    7.3 E0504P02 now but same previously, so maybe it survives by update if you can't set it now.
