System variables can be changed. Below is a list of system variables which GE recommends changing.

System Name: Using a unique name helps you to identify individual devices in a network.

System Contact and System Information: This is helpful for identifying the administrator responsible for the switch and for identifying the locations of individual switches.

To set these variables, change the mode to be SNMP configuration mode from the manager mode using the following syntax

snmp

setvar [sysnamesyscontactsyslocation] =<string>

The following command sequence sets the system name, system location and system contact information.

ML1200# snmp

ML1200(snmp)## setvar ?

setvar: Configures system name, contact or location

Usage: setvar [sysnamesyscontactsyslocation]=<string>

ML1200(snmp)## setvar syslocation=Fremont

System variable(s) set successfully

ML1200(snmp)## exit
