Set Hostname

important

This plugin has been deprecated with the release of SSR 6.3.0.

Set the system hostname of a 128T node to the default value of node.router or define a custom hostname. Where node and router are set to the respective values defined in 128T configuration.

Installation​

The Set Hostname plugin is obtained from the official 128T software repository.

note

The instructions for installing and managing the plugin can be found here.

Configuration​

The plugin confiugration is managed at the node level. If enabled, the plugin will auto-generate a hostname of node.router unless the hostname field is configured to a value besides auto. If disabled the hostname will remain as currently set.

Enabled​

Either of the below examples will result in node.router as the hostname.

set-hostname
    enabled   true
exit
set-hostname
    enabled   true
    hostname  auto
exit

The below example will set the hostname to custom-name.

set-hostname
    enabled   true
    hostname  custom-name
exit

Disabled​

set-hostname
    enabled   false
exit

Caveat​

Ensure your PS1 shell variable includes \H instead of \h to view the full hostname otherwise in the node.router case you will only see the node component, but the system hostname will be accurate.
