• System Stack Mode—Displays whether the device is part of a stack
(Native Stacking or Standalone). The following options are available:
• System Operational Mode—Specifies whether the system is operating in
Layer 2 or Layer 3 system mode for 500 devices. SG500X/ESW2-550X
devices also operate in both Layer 2 and Layer 3 system mode, but the
system mode cannot be changed. It is always Layer 3.
• System Description—A description of the system.
• System Location—Physical location of the device. Click Edit to go the
System Settings page to enter this value.
• System Contact—Name of a contact person. Click Edit to go the System
Settings page to enter this value.
• Host Name—Name of the device. Click Edit to go the System Settings
page to enter this value. By default, the device hostname is composed of
the word switch concatenated with the three least significant bytes of the
device MAC address (the six furthest right hexadecimal digits).
• System Object ID—Unique vendor identification of the network
management subsystem contained in the entity (used in SNMP).

image.
NOTE If the system is in stack mode (Native Stacking mode), the Firmware
Version number shown is based on the version of the master. See the Stack
