What is tpSysInfoHostName?

This object holds an administratively assigned name for the device, which by convention is its fully qualified domain name. Admins set this to give the device a recognizable identity in management tools and DNS, distinct from its description or serial number. For example, an admin might set this to 'switch-floor3.example.com' to identify the device by location and role.
