1. Go to Configuration > System > Device Identity.
2. Enter device identity settings:
Description
A description of up to of up to 64 characters that uniquely identifies the router. This description
is helpful when your site has many routers. A descriptive name can be an easier identifier than
its serial number or other unique parameter. The SNMP function in the router uses this
parameter.
Contact
A contact name for the router.
Location
A location string for the router, which again may be helpful when referring to a particular
router within a site or for identifying a particular site.
Device ID
This field is taken from the Remote Manager configuration and should not normally need to be
changed. When using Remote Manager to manage the router, the configuration procedure
assigns a device ID to the router. The device ID is a 64-byte value, with each 8-byte section
separated with a - character. Valid digits are upper case hexadecimal. The first 16 digits
(reading from left to right) are normally set to 0. The second 16 digits comprise the MAC
address of the primary Ethernet interface and the digits FF to make up the full 8-digit. The
following device ID illustrates the format, using the MAC address 00:11:22:33:44:55.:
00000000- 00000000- 001122FF- FF334455
