Use this page to manage how workstations associated with this policy are recognized and named.
Workstation Name
Displays the workstation naming convention
currently defined in the Add Name Fields and Place Them in Order field.
Whenever there is a potential name conflict (such as two Workstation objects in the same container named after the User object), the system will append a 3-digit number on the end of the name that you enter here.
Add Name Fields and Place Them in Order
You must have at
least one option in this list. By default, there is one of two option
pairs in the list, either Computer + Network Address or User + Network
Address.
You can add or remove options, or click the arrows to move an option up or down the list. The Workstation objects will be named in the order these options display in the list.
The name options are:
<User Defined>: You can specify other parameters here.
Computer: The Windows* computer name, usually as it was named during installation. This is only applicable to Windows 95/98 and Windows NT* workstations.
Container: The container where the User object resides.
CPU: The type of central processing unit in the workstation (for example: 386, 486, Pentium*).
DNS: The Domain Name System name (the logical name related to the IP address).
Network Address: The workstation's network address. This will be either the IP address or the MAC portion of the IPXTM address (the IPX address minus the segment), as specified in the last field on this dialog box.
OS: The workstation's operating system (Windows 95/98 or Windows NT).
Server: The workstation's preferred server.
User: The name of the user logged in.

Name field, such as User + Container.

Name field.
