Follow these steps to configure the first three items in the screen:
1. Select System Name and enter a descriptive name for the
Netopia Router’s SNMP agent.
2. Select System Location and enter the router’s physical location
(room, floor, building, etc.).
3. Select System Contact and enter the name of the person
responsible for maintaining the router.
System Name, System Location, and System Contact set the
values returned by the Netopia Router SNMP agent for the
SysName, SysLocation, and SysContact objects, respectively, in the
MIB-II system group. Although optional, the information you enter in
these items can help a system administrator manage the network
more efficiently.
