  • Contains only alphanumeric and punctuation characters
  • Is unique within the object type

Steps

  1. On the menu bar, click Block > Devices.
  2. In the list of devices, select the required device, and click Modify > Rename.
  3. In the Rename Device dialog box, enter the new name, and click Apply.
  4. Verify that the operation has finished and was successful, and click Dismiss.
