Chapter 1: AT-CV5M02 Management Card

Network Time Protocol Client

The management card has a Network Time Protocol (NTP) client for
setting its date and time from an NTP server on your network or the
Internet. The card adds the date and time to the event messages stored in
the event log and to the SNMP traps sent to SNMP trap receivers.
Although the date and time can be set manually, the NTP client is the
recommended method for setting this information because the card
cannot maintain the date and time when it is reset or when the chassis is
powered off. For instructions, refer to “Configuring the Network Time
Protocol Client” on page 95
.

Manager and Operator Accounts

The management software has two accounts. There is a manager account
for viewing and configuring the parameter settings and an operator
account for just viewing the settings. The manager account has the
username “manager” and the default password “friend”. The operator
account has the username “operator” and the default password “operator”.
The usernames and passwords are case sensitive. For the instructions on
changing the passwords, refer to “Configuring Management Security” on
page 90.

To change to a different account after you’ve started a management
session, you have to log out from your current session and log in again.
For example, to configure the parameter settings of the line cards after
logging on with the operator account, you have to log out and log in again
with the manager account.

Note

A management card can support up to one manager session and
ten operator sessions at a time.
