Canopy System User Guide
By default, a new user is given both read and write access. To restrict access to read-
only, enter the following telnet command:
config modify level user 1
To change the password for the specified user in the telnet user list, enter the
following telnet command:
config change pass user password password
The first instance of password is the new password. The second instance of password
is a required confirmation of the new password.
22.3.3 Overriding Forgotten IP Addresses or Passwords on AP, SM, or BH
Canopy systems offer a plug that allows you to temporarily override some AP/SM/BH
settings and thereby regain control of the module. This plug is needed for access to the
module in any of the following cases:
◦ You have forgotten either
− the IP address assigned to the module.
− the password that provides access to the module.
◦ The module has been locked by the No Remote Access feature. (See Denying
All Remote Access on Page 360 and Reinstating Remote Access Capability on
Page 360.)
◦ You want local access to a module that has had the 802.3 link disabled in the
Configuration page.
This override plug resets the LAN1 IP address to 169.254.1.1. The plug allows you to
access the module through the default configuration without changing the configuration.
You can then view and reset any non-default values.
Acquiring the Override Plug
You can either purchase or fabricate an override plug as follows. To purchase an
override plug for a nominal fee, order the plug at http://www.best-tronics.com/motorola
.
To fabricate an override plug, perform the following steps.
Procedure 40: Fabricating an override plug
