Error description

  • On the CCD, the field "Alternate Comm Info" on C:D Netmap is
    limited in length (16 chars) for CDW netmap entries (not for
    CDU)
    
    As a consequence, one cannot use Control Center Director to
    update this field. For existing entries, the button next is then
    greyed out, as long as the value of this field is not reduced
    for its length to be < 16.
