System commands

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 "Neto-

pia-7000/XXX" where "XXX" is the serial number of the device; for example, Netopia-7000/9437188. 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 identifi-

cation and support parameter. If your Gateway is part of this type of network, do NOT alter the Sys-

tem Name unless specifically instructed by your Service Provider.
