SET SYSTEM DISTINGUISHEDNAME
Syntax
set system distinguishedname="
name
"
Parameter
distinguishedname
Specifies the distinguished name for the switch.
The name must be enclosed in quotes.
Description
This command sets the distinguished name for the switch. The
distinguished name is used to create a self signed certificate or enrollment
request. Allied Telesis recommends using the switch’s IP address or, for
networks with a Domain Name System, its domain name as the
distinguished name. For slave switches in an enhanced stack, which do
not have an IP address, you can use the IP address or domain name of
the master switch as a slave switch’s distinguished name.
To set the distinguished name when creating a self signed certificate, you
can use this command or you can set it directly in “CREATE PKI
CERTIFICATE” on page 856, which is the command for creating a self
signed certificate. It has a parameter for setting the distinguished name.
If you are creating an enrollment request, you must set the distinguished
name with this command first before creating the request. The command
for creating an enrollment request is “CREATE PKI
ENROLLMENTREQUEST” on page 859.
Example
The following command sets the switch’s distinguished name to the IP
address 169.22.22.22:
set system distinguishedname="cn=169.22.22.22"
