Introduction

This chapter provides an alphabetical reference for AMF commands.

AMF Naming Convention

When AMF is enabled on a switch, it will automatically be assigned a host name. If a host
name has already been assigned, by using the command,

“hostname” on page 8.18

, this

will remain. If however, no host name has been assigned, then the name applied will be
the prefix, host_ followed (without a space) by the MAC address of the device. For
example, a device whose MAC address is 0016.76b1.7a5e will have the name
host_0016_76b1_7a5e assigned to it.

To efficiently manage your network using AMF, we strongly advise that you devise a
naming convention for your network switches, and accordingly apply an appropriate
hostname to each switch in your AMF network.
