example, in a network environment, you can assign the same names to each
computer as those assigned by the network. To list the computers by name in the
OSCAR Selection screen, see Changing OSCAR Display Attributes in this chapter.
To access the Port Name Setup screen:
1. Press Print Screen then F2 to access the Advanced Menus screen.
2. Highlight Setup - Names and press Enter. The Port Name Setup screen appears.
