5.3.9.4 Using a MTAC Account and WebGen (Manual) to Enable Software Upgrades
To enable software upgrades for Rapier devices, a two-step process is used that involves tasks at an Allied Telesis website as
well as a AlliedView NMS feature:
1. The Multi-Time-Access-Code (MTAC) is a website where customers can register themselves and then set up for their
devices (based on the serial numbers) the OSs that will be loaded.
2. The WebGen Import Form tool (on the AlliedView NMS) is then brought up, and the results from the MTAC account
are copied either directly into the form or are copied into a file so that it can be copied into the form later.
To access your MTAC account, go to https://licence.alliedtelesis.co.nz/mtac/fusebox.cfm.
Note: Before accessing this site, you will need to obtain a valid user ID and password from your authorized Allied Telesis
representative or reseller.
Once you have accessed the site, you will go through a series of forms where you enter your id, password, give general
customer details, and correlate an OS with the serial numbers of your devices. You must also fill in details on the device for
each serial number. (Note that you do not have to enter information for all your devices and can revisit your account later.)
After clicking on Generate, a list of ENABLE commands is produced that selects the OS for the devices and include the
passwords.
Note: For detailed instructions on using your MTAC account to generate licences, see www.alliedtelesis.co.nz/webgen/pdf/webgen-
customer-guide.pdf.
