Editing Static Mappings

You can change the IP addresses in static mappings owned by the WINS server you are currently administering.

To edit a static mapping entry

1. In the Static Mappings dialog box, select the mapping you want to change, and then choose the Edit Mapping button, or double-click the mapping entry in the list.

The Edit Static Mapping dialog box is displayed.

Note You can view, but not edit, the Computer Name and Mapping Type option for the mapping in the Edit Static Mappings dialog box.

2. In the IP Address box, type a new address for the computer, and then choose the OK button.

The change is made in the WINS database immediately.

Note If you want to change the computer name or group type related to a specific IP address, you must delete the entry and redefine it using the Add Static Mappings dialog box.
