CLI Main Menu or Setup

Once the Administrator user password is verified, you are given complete access to the Nortel SNAS 4050. If the Nortel SNAS 4050 is still set to its factory default configuration, the system will run Setup (see “Initial setup” on page 49), a utility designed to help you through the first-time configuration process. If the Nortel SNAS 4050 has already been configured, the Main menu of the CLI is displayed instead.

Figure 234 shows the Main menu with administrator privileges.

Idle timeout

The Nortel SNAS 4050 will disconnect your local console connection or remote connection (Telnet or SSH) after 10 minutes of inactivity. This value can be changed to a maximum value of 1 hour using the /cfg/sys/adm/clitimeout command (see page 483).
