Avaya 1600 manual Menu interface, Restarting, Default values

The User ID and password transmit as "clear text", which can be captured by unauthorized individuals. If you are concerned with network security, you may not want to use a Telnet program to configure the PARTNER ACS 1600 DSL module.

Menu interface

The PARTNER ACS 1600 DSL module provides an ASCII- based menu interface for system configuration and monitoring. Menus, submenus, and commands may or may not display, depending on the options configured or the access level that you use to log on:

User NetMan

For more information on the access levels, see the "Administration" chapter. For more information on the menus, submenus and commands on the Main Menu, see the “Menu interface” chapter.

For a hierarchical overview of the Main menu and its submenus and commands, see the “PARTNER ACS 1600 DSL module menu hierarchy” appendix.

Default values

The PARTNER ACS 1600 DSL module displays a default or last-used value in parentheses to the left of the command prompt. To accept this value, press ENTER.

For example, if you press ENTER when the following message displays,

Enter a new subnet mask for this interface:

(255.255.255.0) -)

the PARTNER ACS 1600 DSL module sets 255.255.255.0 as the subnet mask value.

Restarting

Any time you use the Menu interface to make changes or change any of the physical characteristics of the PARTNER ACS 1600 DSL module, such as the MAC address of the Ethernet port, you must restart the PARTNER ACS 1600 DSL module for the new settings to take effect.

For more information, see the “Logging on” section earlier in this chapter.
