Switch attributes
3
• A host name can be from 1 through 30 characters long. It must begin with a letter, and can
contain letters, numbers, and underscore characters. The default host name is “sw0.” The
host name is displayed at the system prompt.
• Brocade recommends that you customize the chassis name for each platform. Some system
logs identify the switch by its chassis name; if you assign a meaningful chassis name, logs are
more useful. A chassis name can be from 1 through 30 characters long, must begin with a
letter, and can contain letters, numbers, and underscore characters. The default chassis
names are:
- VDX8770-4
- VDX8770-8
- VDX6710
- VDX6720-24
- VDX6720-60
- VDX6730-32
- VDX6730-76
- VDX6740-48
- VDX6740-64
- VDX6740T-48
- VDX6740T-64
- VDX6740T-1G
Setting host attributes
To set the host attributes, perform the following steps.
1. Issue the <edit-config> RPC to configure the <system> node in the
urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-ras namespace.
2. Under the <system> node, include the <switch-attributes> node.
3. Under the <switch-attributes> node, include the following leaf elements.
a. In the <rbridge-id> element, identify the switch for which you want to set attributes.
b. In the <host-name> element, specify a name for the host.
c. In the <chassis-name> element, specify a name of the chassis.
4. Issue the <bna-config-cmd> custom RPC in the urn:brocade.com:mgmt:brocade-ras
namespace to save the configuration changes made in the running-config file to the
startup-config file.
The following example names the host and the chassis for routing bridge 27.
