Network Device Properties

The Device Properties dialog lists the information held in the Site database for the device you selected. Use it to view the device information, and to update or change property values that are not marked read-only.

To modify a device property:

1    To display the properties of a device, right-click its entry in a device group view and choose Network Device Properties from the shortcut menu.

2    In the Device Properties dialog, select the property you want to update, and click Edit. The Property dialog is displayed.

3    In the Property dialog, enter a Value for the property.

4    If you want to prevent the Network Device Discovery job from overwriting the value when it next runs, select Locked property. Click OK to save your changes.

For example, you can use the Locked Property option when you have used the Property dialog to record the name of the person responsible for supporting the device, and you do not want it to be overwritten.

5    Click OK to save your changes and close the dialog.
