Making the host name the same as the device name
The networks listed in the Edit IP Address dialog box are those currently
defined in the system description, with available settings restricted according to
the network definition. If you require settings that are not available, you can
close dialog boxes and go to the Network Configuration | Networks tab to
modify network settings, then return to the Edit IP Address dialog box to
continue.
8. When you have verified that the planned settings are correct, click OK, then Yes
to apply settings to the device and close.
A Contacting Device message box reports progress.
9. After configuring control network settings, do the following
a. If a message informs you of a possible loss of communication, click OK.
This message is normal, since this is the network over which you are currently
communicating.
b. In the Device list view, observe the device icon and wait until the icon displays
the green star overlay before proceeding.
The icon might not display the green star overlay for several seconds as settings
are reconfigured and communication is re-established.
c. In the Interface list view, right-click the interface and select Ping.
The Ping Host dialog box opens.
If ping status reports success, the interface is communicating on the control
network.
Making the host name the same as the device name
