If the MSS has encountered a problem with the Ethernet network, it will send an alert message to the console and wait ten seconds to detect serial port activity before attempting to Þnish booting. If you press a key during that ten second time period, the MSS will display the Boot prompt at which you can enter the Change IPaddress command to set the unitÕs IP address.

NOTE: For more information on Boot Configuration Program (BCP) commands, see Appendix B.

3.2 Incoming Logins

3.2.1 Controlling Incoming Logins

Incoming Telnet logins are enabled by default, and incoming LAT logins are disabled. This behavior can be changed with the Change Incoming command and one of the following parameters:

Telnet

Enables Telnet logins

LAT

Enables LAT logins

Both

Enables both Telnet and LAT logins

None

Disables Telnet and LAT logins

For security reasons, you may wish to disable incoming logins. If it is undesirable to disable incoming logins, the MSS can be conÞgured to require a login password for incoming connections with the Change Incoming Password command. The incoming password feature can be disabled with the Change Incoming Nopass command.

3.2.2 EZWebCon Login and Configuration

EZWebCon enables users on TCP/IP networks to log into and conÞgure the MSS. The program offers a simple interface that prompts the user for the information necessary to conÞgure the server. Instructions for installing, running, and using EZWebCon are included on the CD-ROM.
