Did you set Should IP Map override user symbol
customisation? to False and
then re-label the symbols?

What I would like
to see is either the dns name or the description (free text I entered) for the
interfaces. IP address, physical address and interface name does not help our
monitoring center to easily identify the problem.
My another issue
regarding to the name generation is the name of the LAN segments. Netview
generates names for these objects very similar to the interfaces. What I can
see right now is dns name for the routers (it is good), ip addresses for the
connecting lan segments and ip addresses for the interfaces. I tried to rename
these symbols to a more descriptive name but within a day netmon changed back
the names to the stupid IP address form.

Choose Default, and it will get you the descriptive label,
like FastEthernet1/0. Is that what you wanted, or is it the lack of DNS name on
interfaces that bothers you?

description, such as Serial0/0/1 if you want. To do that, go to
Edit..Modify/Describe..Map and pick the ipmap application. One of the options
in there is for changing the labels on interfaces. Change it, ok, ok and they
all change. This is an all-or-nothing choice for the whole map.
Those are your choices. You cannot get it to label the interface cards with the
DNS name for each address.
I checked this option and only choices I have is IP address, Physical address,
Unset, Default. None of them looks useable L I
think design part of netview project always gets a very low priority
