Working with Network Node Specifications

You use Network Node specifications to define nodes for the various Network specifications in your inventory. When you add a network node to a network, you can associate a resource to a node. In UIM, nodes and the resources that they represent are modeled separately. This strategy gives you the flexibility required to keep your inventory up to date as equipment changes. A network can consist of nodes that represent a variety of different entities, or no entity at all.

You create Network Node specifications in the same manner as you create other types of specifications. See "Creating New Specifications" for more information.
