Configuring NTP Using the Technician Interface
When you use the Technician Interface to configure the Network Time Protocol
(NTP), you must configure NTP on each slot on the router to ensure that NTP
initializes correctly.
You can configure NTP on each slot by setting the following MIB variable from
the Technician Interface:
set wfProtocols.68.0 0xffffffff;commit
68 represents the wfNTPLoad attribute.
Assigning Passwords
This section describes how to assign or reassign the Manager and User access
passwords.
The Technician Interface runs on a single processor module. When you assign a
password, the GAME operating system distributes the new password to
nonvolatile RAM in all processor modules. (For this reason, the system retains
passwords if the Technician Interface runs subsequently on a different processor
module, after you booted the router, reset a slot, or replaced a board.)
You can assign the User access password when you are logged in as User or
Manager. You can assign the Manager access password only when you are logged
in as Manager.
Note:
If you insert a new processor module, you must reassign the Manager
and User passwords; otherwise, the Technician Interface will not require
passwords when it runs on that slot.
Note:
Passwords, as well as Technician Interface commands and file names,
are case-sensitive.
