SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

The web interface manages this distinction by providing two sets of web pages. Pages available from the XLi Admin Homepage display status information and let the user change the XLi’s configuration settings. Pages available from the XLi User Homepage only display status information.

Administrative users (e.g., operator1) have access to both the XLi Admin Homepage and the XLi User Homepage sets of pages. Non-administrative users (e.g., user1) only have access to the XLi User Homepage set of pages.

Sessions

Only one user can be logged into the web interface at a time. The web interface does not support concurrent web sessions. If a second user tries to log in, the browser displays a "503 Web Page Server Busy" message.

The XLi supports concurrent user sessions on the web and command line interfaces (on the network or serial port). However, Symmetricom recommends avoiding concurrent administrative user sessions.

The XLi’s web server automatically closes inactive web sessions after 30 minutes of inactivity.

User Names and Passwords

The ten administrative user names, “operator1” through “operator10”, have “zeus” as the factory set password.

The ten non-administrative user names, “user1” through “user10”, have “ttm” as the factory set password.

Only administrative users can change the user names and passwords. User names and passwords must have 1 to 15 characters, and are limited to upper/lower case alphanumeric and underscore (“_”) characters. No “special” characters.

Logging In

To log in, enter the IP address of the XLi’s “NET” network port into the web browser’s address field. At the XLi Home Page, click the Login button. Enter the appropriate user name and password and click the Login button with your mouse. The browser displays the XLi Admin Homepage or XLi User Homepage.

Navigating

Several notes about using the web interface:

The home page presents an image of the XLi’s front panel to assist with identification, should the user need to find it on a rack.

The images of the 1U chassis show the position of the options bays as seen from the rear of the unit.

The links on the left navigation bar provide access to three different aspects of the XLi:

General - the general status and configuration of the XLi system (e.g., user accounts, clock
