Digi TransPort WR Routers User Guide 643
Router Identity
A string of up to 20 characters that identify the router in email alert messages generated by the
event logger. This string also serves as the prompt string during a remote login. The factory
configuration uses the character sequence %s. This sequence is replaced by the serial number of
the router when the unit identity is displayed. You can use this character sequence when
creating a custom identity for the router. For example, if the serial number of the router is
012345, entering the string My_Router_%s> would show the prompt My_Router_012345>
during a remote login.
Hostname
Assigns a hostname to the local IP address of the router.
Secondary Hostname
Allows a second hostname to be assigned to a router. This is associated with the secondary IP
address.
Note Character limitations of the Description and Hostname fields should be 64 characters.
