Canopy System User Guide
RECOMMENDATION:
Note the color code that you enter. Ensure that you can readily associate
this color code both with the module and with the other data that you
store about the module.
Sector ID
Specify a number to associate with this BHM. The Sector ID does not affect the operation
of the BHM. On the AP Eval Data web page of the BHS, the Sector ID field identifies the
BHM that the BHS sees. For efficient and accurate network management, you should
◦ assign a unique Sector ID to each sector.
◦ repeat the assignment pattern throughout the entire Canopy system.
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.
If you set and then forget the Display-Only Access password, then you must both
1. physically access the module.
2. use an override plug to electronically access the module configuration
parameters at 169.254.1.1. See Overriding Forgotten IP Addresses or
Passwords on AP, SM, or BH on Page 302.
