During Nav/Fam training, where are squawk and ident changes performed?

Explanation:
Squawk and ident are settings for the IFF transponder, which is how your aircraft identifies itself to radar and ATC. Those controls live on the IFF Subsystem Control page in the MCS because that page is specifically dedicated to configuring the transponder’s identity and response code. The Flight Plan page handles navigation data, not radar identification. The Ground Control Interface manages ground-to-air data exchanges, not IFF settings. The Maintenance Console is for diagnostics and upkeep, not routine identification changes. So the IFF Subsystem Control page is the right place to adjust squawk codes and ident.
