Setting the switch country code

When initially logging into the system, the switch requests that you enter the correct country code
for your region. If a country code is not configured, a warning message will display stating that an
incorrect country setting will lead to the illegal use of the switch. Consequently, selecting the
correct country is extremely important. Each country has its own regulatory restrictions concerning
electromagnetic emissions (channel range) and the maximum RF signal strength transmitted. To
ensure compliance with national and local laws, be sure to set the Country value correctly.

Viewing the switch configuration

To view a high-level display of the switch configuration:

1. Select Switch from the main menu tree.

2. Click the Configuration tab.

3. Refer the System field to view or define the following information:

System Name

reminder of the user base the switch supports (engineering, retail, etc.).

Location

The Location parameter serves as a reminder of where the switch can be found.
Define the System Name as a specific identifier of the switch’s location. Use the
System Name and Location parameters together to optionally define the switch
name by the radio coverage type it supports and physical location. For example,
“second floor engineering.”
