3.16 SYSTEM NAME

The system name is a name assigned to the ELS100-16TX by the
network administrator. By convention, the system name is the fully
qualified domain name. (This name then becomes the LCM
prompt.)

The system location identifies the physical location of the ELS100-
16TX.

3.16.2 Community Names

The set community name variable (from the Cabletron proprietary
MIB), must be initialized with the correct community name
passwords.

All requests from any SNMP manager contain a community name
field. For set requests, the community name must match the set
password; otherwise, the request will be rejected by the ELS100-
16TX. For get requests, the community name must match either the
set or the get community name.
