Chapter 1: Starting a Command Line Management Session

Naming a Chassis Naming a chassis will make it easier for you to identify it in the
management software and may help you avoid the common mistake of
performing a command or procedure on the wrong device. The command
is SYSTEM SET CHASSIS and the format is:
system set chassis id= chassis name= name
The chassis variable is the ID number of the chassis. In Version 1.3.0, this
number is either 0 or 31. To view this number, use the SYSTEM SHOW
CLUSTER command.
The name variable specifies a name of up to 20 alphanumeric characters
for the chassis. Spaces are allowed, but a name with spaces must be
enclosed in double quotes (“ “).
This example assigns the name “Region 1 Traffic” to a chassis with the ID
number 0:
system set chassis id=0 name=”Region 1 Traffic”
For more information on the SYSTEM SET CHASSIS command, refer to
“SYSTEM SET CHASSIS” on page 51.
Saving Your
Changes
This completes the initial configuration of the chassis. To update the
configuration files on the modules with your changes, enter this command:
config save
For more information on the command, refer to “Saving Your
Configuration Changes” on page 17 or Chapter 8, “Configuration File
Commands” on page 129.
Note
If you do not issue the CONFIG SAVE command and later reset or
power cycle the device, your changes will be discarded.
Note
To make identifying the chassis easier, Allied Telesis recommends
attaching a label to the front panel of the unit with its chassis ID
number, name, and MAC address. To view this information, use the
SYSTEM SHOW CLUSTER command.
