Description

The SET DEVICE NAME command enables you to assign the Bridge Module a name that can be used to identify it in addition to its IP address. The name you enter is free-format up to 31 alphanumeric characters.

You can then use this name when remotely accessing the Bridge Module using the REMOTE_LOGIN NAME {name} command instead of using the IP or Ethernet address.

It is recommended that you make the device name and the terminal prompt for the Bridge Module the same (refer to the SET TERMINAL PROMPT command) so that during remote login sessions, you will know whether you are in a local or remote session.
