Configuring System Management Information

This section explains how to assign a name to the switch, as well as the
location of the switch and the name of the switch’s administrator. Entering
this information is optional.

To set a switch’s administration information, perform the following
procedure:

1. From the System folder, select Management.

The Management Page is shown in Figure 60.

2. Configure the following parameters as necessary:

System Description
Specifies the model number of the switch. You cannot change this
parameter.

System Name
Specifies a name for the switch, for example, Sales. The name is
optional and may contain up to 50 characters.

Note

Allied Telesis recommends that you assign a name to the switch. A
name can help you identify the switch when you manage it and can
also help you avoid performing a configuration procedure on the
wrong switch.

contain up to 50 characters.
