Basic Configuration
5.3.5. Scripting Options
The Scripting Options submenu provides access to parameters that are used to set up
the AFS-16 unit for running various scripts.
Notes:
• To access Scripting Options parameters via the Text Interface, first type
/F
and press [Enter] to display the System Parameters Menu, then key in the
number for the Scripting Options item and press [Enter].
• To access the Scripting Options parameters via the Web Browser Interface,
place the cursor over the "General Parameters" link, wait for the flyout menu
to appear, then click on the "Scripting Options" link.
The Scripting Options menu allows the following parameters to be defined:
• Command Confirmation: This item can be used to suppress the command
confirmation prompt, which is normally displayed before commands are executed.
When Command Confirmation is "Off", the AFS-16 will not display the "Are You
Sure?" prompt before executing commands. (Default = On.)
• Automated Mode: When enabled, the AFS-16 will execute commands without
displaying a confirmation prompt, status screen or confirmation messages. For
more information, please refer to Section 5.3.5.1. (Default = Off.)
Note: When this option is enabled, security functions are suppressed, and
users are able to access configuration menus and control switching without
entering a password. If security is a concern and the Automated Mode is
required, it is recommended to use the IP Security feature (Section 5.9.3) to
restrict access.
