Naming a Switch

This procedure assigns a name to the switch. The name is displayed in all
Omega windows when you manage the switch. This can make it easier
for you to identify the switches in your network when you configure and
monitor them with Omega.

1. From the Omega Main Menu, select System Configuration.

The System Configuration menu shown in Figure 8 on page 43 is
displayed.

2. In the System name entry field, enter a unique name of up to 20

characters.

The switch name must be unique within the subnet.

If the switch already has a name that you want to delete without
entering a new name, delete the existing name and enter a space
character.

Note
If you are running Omega from a web browser, select the System
name
menu option and enter the name in the prompt.

3. Return to the Main Menu.

The new name is displayed at the top of every Omega screen.
