System Settings

You can configure system settings to assign a name to your Motorola Netopia® Gateway and to specify
what types of messages you want the diagnostic log to record.
set system name name
Specifies the name of your Motorola Netopia® Gateway. Each Motorola Netopia® Gateway is assigned
a name as part of its factory initialization. The default name for a Motorola Netopia® Gateway consists
of the word "Netopia-3000/XXX" where "XXX" is the serial number of the device; for example, Netopia-
3000/9437188. A system name can be 1 – 255 characters long. Once you have assigned a name to
your Motorola Netopia® Gateway, you can enter that name in the Address text field of your browser to
open a connection to your Motorola Netopia® Gateway.
NOTE:
Some broadband cable-oriented Service Providers use the System Name as an important
identification and support parameter. If your Gateway is part of this type of network, do
NOT alter the System Name unless specifically instructed by your Service Provider.
set system diagnostic-level { off | low | medium | high | alerts | failures }
Specifies the types of log messages you want the Motorola Netopia® Gateway to record. All messages
with a level equal to or greater than the level you specify are recorded. For example, if you specify set
system diagnostic-level medium, the diagnostic log will retain medium-level informational messages,
alerts, and failure messages. Specifying off turns off logging.
Use the following guidelines:
low
- Low-level informational messages or greater; includes trivial status messages.
K
medium
- Medium-level informational messages or greater; includes status messages that can
K
help monitor network traffic.
high
- High-level informational messages or greater; includes status messages that may be signifi-
K
cant but do not constitute errors. The default.
alerts
- Warnings or greater; includes recoverable error conditions and useful operator informa-
K
tion.
failures
- Failures; includes messages describing error conditions that may not be recoverable.
