For an overview of networks and how they fit into the network model, see Networks.

Network Attribute

Description

Name

A descriptive name for the network (required)

Customer

The Customer name is typically used if configuring assets for a customer on behalf of a managed security service provider (MSSP).

  • Select the customer using the drop-down arrow. The arrow displays the Customers resource tree.
  • Alternatively, if the resource tree has too many subgroups to traverse and you know the customer by name, use the Advanced Selector button. See Using the Advanced Selector While Editing Resources.

Location

This is an optional field for a descriptive name of the geographical location of the network.

  • Select the location using the drop-down arrow. The arrow displays the Locations resource tree.
  • Alternatively, if the resource tree has too many subgroups to traverse and you know the location by name, use the Advanced Selector button. See Using the Advanced Selector While Editing Resources.

In addition to network Attributes (described above), the Network Editor includes subtabs for adding Connectors and Zones into the selected network you are configuring.
