Hostname Conventions

The following table lists local and peer hostname conventions to follow while setting up SBC systems. The SBC hostname consists of the system name with additional characters appended to the system name to distinguish the hostname from the system name.

Note
For an HA system, the local hostname, peer hostname and system name must each be unique. For example, an HA system configured with a system name of “WFDSBC01” has the local hostname and peer hostname named “WFDSBC01a” and “WFDSBC01b”, respectively.
Note

Hostname is also referred to as "ceName". For example, "local ceName" and "peer ceName" are the equivalent of "local hostname" and "peer hostname".

Viewing Local Hostname and and Peer Hostname From CLI

One method to view the hostnames is to use the 'show table system serverStatus' CLI command as shown in the example below where the hostnames are listed in the NAME column.
