Set a value for an element attribute

You set the values of attributes for elements. You can modify element attributes to provide metadata, modify the element, or set conditional profiling attributes.

You must check out the map or topic first.

Note: You can limit the values that users can pick for an attribute to a preset list by adding a subject scheme map. For more information on creating a subject scheme map, see IXIA CCMS Desktop User Guide.

To set the value for an element attribute:

  1. Select an element.
  2. In the side panel, click Attributes.
  3. Click Add Attribute.
  4. From the Attributes drop-down list, select the attribute you want to set.
  5. In the Value field, select one of the allowed values.
    For some fields, you can enter your own values.
  6. Click Add.
    The attribute is now set for the selected element.
