After specifying the server’s IP address, activate the NTP client with this
command:
ntp enable
Note
Review the section “NTP Client Guidelines” on page 118 before
activating the client.
Enabling the
Telnet or Secure
Shell Server
Do you want to be able to manage the chassis over your network from a
remote workstation with the Telnet or SSH application protocol? If so,
activate the appropriate server on the management module. To enable the
Telnet server, enter this command:
telnet enable
To enable the SSH server, enter this command:
ssh enable
For information of the Telnet server commands, refer to Chapter 10,
“Telnet Server Commands” on page 197. For information on the SSH
commands, refer to Chapter 12, “Secure Shell Server (SSH) Commands”
on page 209
Naming a Chassis
Assigning a name to a chassis will make identifying it in the management
software easier. It may also help you avoid the common mistake of
performing a command or procedure on the wrong device. The command
is SYSTEM SET CHASSIS and the format is:
system set chassis id=
chassis
name=
name
The chassis variable is the ID number of the chassis. If you have a
management module installed in the chassis, the chassis id is either 0 (the
default) or 31. If you have a stacking module installed in your chassis, you
can assign a range of 1 to 30 as the chassis ID. To view this number, use
the SYSTEM SHOW CLUSTER command.
The name variable specifies a name of up to 20 alphanumeric characters
for the chassis. Spaces are allowed, but a name with spaces must be
enclosed in double quotes (“ “).
This example assigns the name “Region 1 Traffic” to a chassis with an ID
number of 1:
system set chassis id=1 name=”Region 1 Traffic”
For more information on the SYSTEM SET CHASSIS command, refer to
“SYSTEM SET CHASSIS” on page 59.
