Switch Information - D-Link xStack DES-6500 User Manual

Switch Information

The subsections below describe how to change some of the basic settings for the Switch such as changing IP settings and
assigning user names and passwords for management access privileges, as well as how to save the changes and restart the
Switch.
Click the Switch Information link in the Configuration menu.
The Switch Information window shows the Switch's MAC Address (assigned by the factory and unchangeable), the
Boot PROM, Firmware Version, and Hardware Version. This information is helpful to keep track of PROM and
firmware updates and to obtain the Switch's MAC address for entry into another network device's address table, if
necessary. The user may also enter a System Name, System Location and System Contact to aid in defining the Switch,
to the user's preference.
NOTE: Please check the firmware version of the CPU and line cards of the xStack DES-
6500 chassis switch before upgrading to firmware release R3.00-B29. For firmware
upgrading information, cautions and procedures for release 3, please see Appendix B at
the end of the manual.
