The following desired node definition values can now be entered.
Node Name
This uniquely identifies each node. This identifier is
always unique and cannot be duplicated for use with other
nodes. It can have up to 16 characters, including spaces or
dashes.
Node ID
This identification number can only be in the range from
1 to 65,535. Every time you add a new node, the node ID
that appears is the next higher available number. You may
keep that number or change it, but two nodes cannot share
the same Node ID.
Location
This identifies the node site---usually the location of a
customer’s equipment. This field can be up to 30
characters long. It is used to display nodes in alphabetical
order, by location. Multiple nodes can have the same
location.
