THis is a very big leak in NV. The only ting I can do for this is update the 
DNS with the correct names. In this case equipment objects (routers, switches, 
servers) displayed as names, but interfaces and networks still displayed as IP 
addresses. Do not try to rename them manually, NV will change it back next 
morning (I did this twice :))

It is a bit hard to love netview. Anyone knows a good freeware replacement of 
this product?
