[location=" location "]
Parameters
name Specifies the name of the switch. The name can be from 1 to
39 alphanumeric characters in length and must be enclosed
in double quotes (“ “). Spaces are allowed.

for managing the switch. The contact can be from 1 to 39

Description
This command sets a switch’s name, the name of the network
administrator responsible for managing the unit, and the location of the
unit.
If a parameter already has a value, the new value replaces the existing
value. To view the current values for these parameters, refer to “SHOW
SYSTEM” on page 79. To delete a value without assigning a new value,
refer to “RESET SYSTEM” on page 53.
Note
If you define the system name before you set up a system prompt,
the switch uses the first 16 characters of the system name as the
prompt. See “SET PROMPT” on page 38.
Examples
The following command sets a switch’s information:
set system name="Sales" contact="Jane Smith" location="Bldg
3, rm 212"
The following command sets just the system’s name:
set system name="PR Office"
