6.5.1.2.5 Setting the Switch Name via Telnet Session

After you set the IP address and subnet mask, you can use a telnet session to log in to the switch to complete other switch management functions or monitor switch status. For example, if a system’s /etc/hosts file contains an alias for the switch’s IP address, set the switch name to the alias. This allows you to telnet to the switch name from that system. Telnet from a system that has the IP address in its /etc/hosts file and set the switch address as follows:

#telnet 132.25.47.146 User admin Return

Passwd Return

Return

:Admin> switchName fcsw1 :Admin> switchName Return

fcsw1

:Admin>

Return

______________________ Note _______________________

When you telnet to the switch the next time, the prompt will include the switch name, for example:

fcsw1:Admin>
