Allied Telesis AT-S97 - Manual (Page 28)

Chapter 1: Starting a Command Line Management Session

Note
To avoid possible compatibility problems between the management
module and the media converter modules, Allied Telesis
recommends that all modules in a chassis or stack use the same
version of the AT-S85 and AT-S97 Management Software. If the
modules shown in the SYSTEM SHOW CLUSTER command have
different versions, you should upgrade the operating software on the
modules. For instructions, Chapter 9, “File System Commands” on
page 149.
Changing the
Manager
Password
Because the default password for the predefined manager account is
included in this document, which is posted on our web site where anyone
with a web browser can see it, you should change the password as part of
the initial configuration to protect the unit from unauthorized access. To
change the password, enter this command:
user set username=manager password
Prompts appear for the password. You are prompted twice to verify it. A
password can be up to 16 alphanumeric characters and is case sensitive.
Spaces and special characters are not recommended.
For information on how to create additional manager accounts, refer to
Chapter 12, “Manager Account Commands” on page 187.
Creating a
Master
Configuration
File
This step creates a master configuration file in the file system on the
management module. The module uses the file to store your parameter
changes. Without the file, the module cannot save your parameter settings
and you will have to reenter them if you reset or power cycle the chassis.
This task has two steps. The first step creates the file with the CONFIG
SAVE FILESYSTEM command. The format of the command is:
config save filesystem=system:// chassis / slot / filename .cfg
The chassis variable is the ID number of the chassis. A chassis with a
management module will have the ID 0 or 31. This value is set with a
jumper on the circuit board of the module. To view this number, use the
SYSTEM SHOW CLUSTER command.
The slot variable specifies the chassis slot that has the management
module, signified by the letter “m”.
And, finally, filename.cfg is the filename for the new master configuration
file. The name can be up to 15 alphanumeric characters, not including the
extension. Spaces are allowed, but a name with spaces must be enclosed
in double quotes.
