Configuration

NOTE: Changing the administrator login name does not change the administrator’s password. Use the password procedure to change the password.

System Host Name

Use the configure hostname command to assign a host name to the Foundry router. Once assigned, the host name becomes the command line interface (CLI) prompt name.

To configure the host name:

1.Access the terminal configuration mode: Foundry-AR1204# configure term

2.Type hostname, and then type a new host name.

3.Press Return.

example:

Foundry-AR1204/configure# hostname Fremont

In the above example, the new host name for the system is Fremont. The CLI prompt changes to Fremont, accordingly.

example:

Fremont/configure#

Date and Time

Date and time is set using the configure date command. You must specify the offset direction, hours, and minutes before entering the exact date and time. The number of hours and minutes is offset from (earlier than or later than) a Universal Time Coordinated clock (UTC).

NOTE: Universal Time Coordinated (UTC), the internationally recognized measure of time, is also known as Greenwich Mean Time (GMT).

To set the date and time:

1.Enter the terminal configuration mode: Foundry-AR1204# configure term

2.Press Return.

3.Use the date command to enter the hours and minutes offset from UTC, followed by the current month, day, year, hour (24-hour format), minute, and second.

To enter the date and time: May 10, 2004, 2:40:35 pm, see the following example:

example:

Foundry-AR1204/configure#date + 0 0 mo 5 d 10 y 2004 h 14 mi 40 s 35

NOTE: The hour, minute, and second entries are optional.

The router confirms the setting by automatically displaying the date and time. To confirm the date and time parameters, use the display date command.

Adding Users

The configure user command allows the system administrator to add up to 15 users (login ID) and assign each user an access privilege (levels 2-4). Only the system administrator (level 1) can add, modify, or remove this information.

To add a new user:

1.Enter the terminal configuration mode: Foundry-AR1204# configure term

2.Type user name, enter the name that you want to add, and then enter the access level to be assigned to that name (optional). The user name may be up to 30 characters. The password must be 3-10 characters.
