To customize tree labels

Purpose

In the NFM-P GUI, navigation tree objects are displayed with icons and labels. Labels are displayed as text fields separated by commas.

You can customize labels for tree objects by selecting the text field definitions that appear and the order in which they appear. Labels for the Network, Unmanaged NEs, or Discovered NEs objects cannot be customized.

Perform this procedure to customize the labels for navigation tree objects.
