9 Management configuration settings
This section details the configuration sections and parameters which are required
to manage and monitor the device using Activator and Monitor.
Activator is a Virtual Access proprietary provisioning system, where specific
router configurations and firmware can be stored.
Monitor is a Virtual Access proprietary tool, based on SNMP protocol, to monitor
wide networks of deployed routers.
9.1 Autoload - boot up activation
This section contains the settings that specify how the device should behave with
respect to Activation when it boots up. You can change the settings either
directly in the configuration file or via appropriate uci set commands.
The autoload core section configures the basic functionality of the module which
orchestrates the Activation process. It contains these settings:
Name Type Required Default Description

at system boot.
StartTimer integer yes 10
Defines how long to wait after the boot
up completes before starting activation.
RetryTimer integer yes 30
Defines how many seconds to wait
between retries if a download of a
particular autoload entry (see next table)
fails.
NumberOfRetries integer yes 5
Defines how many retries to attempt
before failing the overall activation
sequence, backing off and trying the
whole activation sequence again.
BackoffTimer integer yes 15
Defines how many minutes to back off for
if a download and all retries fail. After the
backoff period, the entire autoload
sequence will start again.
BootUsingConfig string yes altconfig
Specifies which configuration to boot up
with after the activation sequence
completes successfully.
BootUsingImage string yes altimage

The Autoload entry sections specify which files, and in which order they are
