Global settings
The Global Settings screen permit the user to change the Device Name and Device
Location strings associated with the N-111. These strings are shown at the header at
the top of every configuration web page. They are also provided in the configuration
data sent to any Pilot server which the N-111 communicates with to identify the N-111.
The user may optionally enter contact information for this unit. This string is used as
part of the unit identification information during SNMP reporting. It is also included as
part of the configuration data set to Pilot servers.
The Global Settings screen also permits the user to change which authentication will be
used for the API. The user may select for the fixed internal username and password to
be used, or for the user-supplied username and password to be used.
Changes to the Device Name and Device Location settings take effect immediately.
Changes to the API Authentication will take effect at the next unit startup. Note that
when tunneling contacts between units, both units must have the same API
Authentication setting and the same Username and Password set.
