The SYSTEM menu
NODE NAME
The SYSTEM SETTINGS menu allows the user to define a name for the chassis, which appears at the top
left-hand corner of the screen and is used to address the unit in Teletype mode. This may be
alphanumeric but must start with a letter.
NODE ID
The I.D. number specifies the chassis and must be unique within the network; the V100 uses it to route
packets to the correct destination. This number must be entered explicitly into each unit before the
network is configured and cannot be entered remotely. All other fields (except the “Configuration By
Remote” field – see below) may be edited locally or remotely.
CONFIGURATION BY REMOTE
Allows or prevents other users on the network from configuring this V100 via either Telnet or remote
configuration. The “Configuration By Remote” field may only be set locally since this prevents remote
tampering.
