3.4.1.3Setting the Chassis Number and Name

A Chassis Name, or sysName, can be assigned for identification of the GX/TM2 in the SNMP client. The name can be any 1-32 character alphanumeric string.

The Chassis Number can remain as 1 (factory default) when the GX/TM2 is installed without an iConverter NMM in the same chassis. When the GX/TM2 is installed in the same chassis as an NMM, then the GX/TM2 must be set to the Chassis Number of the NMM.

To set the Chassis Number, select 4 at the IP and Control Preferences screen, press <ENTER> and follow the instructions to enter the chassis number.

To set the Chassis Name, select 5 at the IP and Control Preferences screen, press <ENTER> and follow the instructions to enter the chassis name.
