Renaming master table of a snapshot

I am attempting to rename a table that is replicated to another site. When I attempt to do this, I get Oracle error 26563.

$ oerr ora 26563
26563, 00000, "renaming this table is not allowed"
// *Cause: Attempt to rename a replicated table, an updatable snapshot table

//         or the master table of a snapshot for which a snapshot log has been
//         created.


// *Action: If desired, unregister the replicated table with


//          dbms_repcat.drop_master_repobject, or use the recommended
//          procedure to rename the master table of a snapshot.
$

Does anyone know what is the "recommended procedure to rename the master table of a snapshot."? TIA for any help.
