Changing the switch name and chassis name
Changing the switch and chassis names is important for accurate tracking of errors in the RASlog.
The messages in the log are labeled with the switch or chassis name, so choose a meaningful
name for the switch and chassis.
To change the chassis name and then the switch name:
1.
Using Telnet, log in to the switch as
admin
.
2.
Use the
chassisname
command to change the chassis name.
The following example shows how to change the chassis name to myhpchassis.
switch:admin>
chassisname myhpchassis
switch:admin>
chassisname
myhpchassis
3.
Use the
switchname
command to change the switch name.
The following example shows how to change the switch name to myhpswitch.
switch:admin>
switchname myhpswitch
switch:admin>
switchname
myhpswitch
