System information

Configure background color
The first option allows you to configure the background color. At this time, your choices are between
black and blue. Foreground colors remain the same.
Change password
This option allows you to change the system password. You'll need to know the old password to make
the change. The default password for the admin user is 1234. This should be changed before the
system is deployed.
Update / Enter License Key
This is where you enter the system key. Remember, the system key is paired to one of the MAC
addresses in the machine. If you need to reinstall StarOS from scratch, you'll need the license key to
get restore the configuration.
Upgrade firmware
Your StarOS license permits free upgrades to the firmware (first year only on WRAP boards). Upgrade
images. are available directly from the StarOS website. Chapter 7 covers how to use starutil to push the
upgrade files to the system. Once a new image is on the system, you'll use this option to activate the
firmware. Firmware upgrades require a system reboot to take effect.
SSH client
The ssh client provides you the ability to ssh to any other radio or UNIX system running an ssh server.
Telnet client
The telnet client provides an alternative to ssh for antiquated systems that have no ssh access. I
shouldn't need to remind you what a bad idea passing usernames and passwords in the clear over radio
is.
