To Identify Your System
If your network operates with several of the access points, a means of
identifying each individual access point would be useful.
In certain cases your ISP might request identification before
dynamically allocating an IP address. The System Name of the router
can then serve as a DHCP Client ID during negotiations with the DHCP
Server of your ISP.
You can define the System Identity to be utilised as System Name, or as
DHCP Client ID.
Follow these steps to define a System Identity for your router.
System Identity
Click System Identity from the
System Tools menu.
1. In System Name , enter the DHCP
Client ID assigned by your ISP.
2. In System Contact , fill in the name
of a contact person.
3. Enter System Location .
This entry can help in
identification if there are multiple
devices in your network or
building.
4. Click Apply to effect the
changes.
