    Unable to update host name on web interface

    Hello

    I'm working on setting up some EcoSys P2040dw's in a warehouse. After configuring all of them we found we need to update the host name of one of them, but we aren't able to. I log into the WebUI, go to Device Settings > System, update the hostname to what is desired, hit "Submit", it asks me to confirm, I hit yes and the setting isn't retained, it sticks with the previous value. I've tried changing it to something else, updating then restarting the network/device many times and still no change. I'm thinking there must be something I'm missing or that's preventing me from changing that isn't evident.

    Has anyone has encountered this or know what might be preventing this change?

    TIA!

    Sometimes it takes multiple tries to get it to work, for some reason.
    Hope that helps !

        Aha--that it does--tried it a few more times and it finally stuck---thank you so much!
