Save Changes, then the change becomes effective immediately and the previous value
is lost.
Power Port Control
Ensure that power is off for every port that connects to a router, computer, or other
network equipment. Turn on 24-V DC power for ports that connect to Canopy APs or
BHs.
CAUTION!
Never connect any devices other than Canopy APs and BHs to a
powered port. Powered ports are indicated by a red LED to the right of
the port. (See Item 7 in Figure 64 on Page 172.) A powered port has
24-V DC on Pins 7 and 8 and 24-V return on Pins 4 and 5. This can
damage other networking equipment, such as a computer or a router.
If you change this value for a port and then click Save Changes, then the change
becomes effective immediately and the previous value is lost.
Display-Only Access
If you set (populate) the Display-Only Access password, this password will allow only
viewing activities on the module.
This protection interacts with the Full Access password protection as follows:
◦ If the Display-Only Access password is set and the Full Access password
is not, then the Display-Only Access password allows
− telnet and FTP access to the module.
− viewing or changing the parameters of the module. This configuration is not
recommended.
◦ If the Full Access password is also set, then the Full Access password allows
telnet and FTP access to the module, and the Display-Only Access password
does not.
◦ If the Display-Only Access password is not set and the Full Access password
is, then no password is required to view the parameters of the module.
◦ If neither password is set, then anyone can view or change the parameters of the
module. This configuration is not recommended.
To set this password, enter the same expression in both Display-Only Access fields for
verification. When the web-based interface prompts for this password, no user name is
required. However, when a telnet or FTP session prompts for this password, you must
enter the user name root in addition to the password.
