PARAMETER

DESCRIPTION

1 - IP Address

This parameter specifies the IP address of the stack.
You must specify an IP address if you intend to
remotely manage the stack using a Telnet utility, an
SNMP management program, or a Web browser.

2 - Subnet Mask

This parameter specifies the subnet mask. You must
specify a subnet mask if you assigned an IP address to
the stack.

3 - Default
Gateway

This parameter specifies the default router’s IP address.
This address is required if you intend to remotely
manage the stack from a management station that is
separated from the stack by a router.

4 - System Name

This parameter specifies a name for the stack (for
example, Sales).

The value range is 1 to 39 alphanumeric characters.
This parameter is optional.

NOTE: Assigning names to the different stacks in your
network can make it easier for you to identify them.
This can help you avoid performing a configuration
procedure on the wrong stack.
