The transceiver’s Device Name is used as the “Realm.” (See Device
Names Menu on Page 27 to learn how to change this name.) This name
will confirm you are connecting to the transceiver you desire.
Changing Passwords
Via Terminal
Emulator or Telnet
Once you are logged in, you can go to the Device Information Menu and
change the password (case-sensitive). Follow any changes to the pass-
word or other parameters with an
ENTER key to save the change.
Via Web Browser At the time of publication, it is not possible to change the password via
the web browser interface. This restriction is done for security rea-
sons—a web browser transmits messages in clear text.
Logging Out of the entraNET Management System
For security reasons, it is best to formally log-out of the entraNET Man-
agement System. If you do not formally log out, the session will be ter-
minated within 10 minutes of your last activity with the system.
Web Browser To logout of the entraNET MS with a Web browser, click on the
“Logout” listing in the left hand frame of the browser window. The
right-hand frame will change to a logout page. Follow the instructions
on this Web page.
Telnet From the Main Menu, press “Q” to quit and terminate the session. If you
do not manually log out, your session will time-out after 10 minutes of
no keyboard activity.
Terminal Emulator You do not need to logout from a terminal emulator when connected to
the
COM1 port. You can force a logout by pressing the exclamation
point (!) key to optimize the transceiver’s security. (Note: This only
works from the Starting Information Screen or the Main Menu Screen.)
