Changing The Brand Name Of An Mpu; Setting The Operating Mode - HP 12500 Configuration Manual

Step
6. Configure the shell banner.

Changing the brand name of an MPU

The device supports both HP MPUs and HP MPUs. Some network management software identifies a
device by the brand name of the device's active MPU. If a device has two MPUs and the two MPUs have
different brand names, the network management software considers the device a different one after an
active/standby switchover occurs on the device. To avoid this problem, use the display brand command
to view the brand names of the MPUs and change brand names to HP.
To change the brand name of an MPU:
