Conguring a Unique Host Name on the System
While you can manually congure a host name for the system, you can also congure the system to have a unique host name. The unique
host name is a combination of the platform type and the serial number of the system. The unique host name appears in the command
prompt. The running conguration gets updated with the feature unique-name command. It also overwrites any existing host name
congured on the system using the
hostname command.
To create a unique host name, use the following command.
