h_name
field if
gethostbyaddr

files names on all systems are not identical, the
h_name
returned may vary on
different Agent systems. For example,

client
returns
client.somewhere.com

the
h_name
field returned by
gethostbyaddr

Multiple Agents
If the Agent system is running multiple SWCC Agents (for example, to support
different controller types), the client system must be authorized for all Agents. If
the client system is missing from any authorized Client list of an Agent, that
Agent cannot be added to the Navigation tree.
