Would it be possible to rename the virtual ports in BMT? If one or more ports are used for specific hardware or software, it would be nice to name them to the specific hardware or software and seen as such instead of the generic names. Thanks!

Hi, I’m not clear on this but it looks like Florian may have answered this question a few years ago in this post.
