What is naming?
Naming involves assigning a clear and unique name to an element or service in Aruba CMP.

The name assigned to each element must meet the following requirements:
- number of characters between 4 and 50

- only alphanumeric characters are allowed
- lowercase letters are allowed (at least one lowercase letter is required)
- uppercase letters are not allowed
- special characters are not allowed
- the only permitted symbol is the hyphen (-), which cannot be used at the beginning or end of the name
