LABEL

DESCRIPTION

 

Administrator

Type how many minutes a management session (either via the Web Configurator or

 

Inactivity Timer

telnet) can be left idle before the session times out. The default is 5 minutes. After it

 

 

times out you have to log in with your password again. Very long idle timeouts may have

 

 

security risks. A value of "0" means a management session never times out, no matter

 

 

how long it has been left idle (not recommended).

 

 

 

 

Password

 

 

 

 

 

Old Password

Type the default password or the existing password you use to access the system in this

 

 

field.

 

 

 

 

New Password

Type your new system password (up to 30 characters). Note that as you type a password,

 

 

the screen displays a (*) for each character you type. After you change the password, use

 

 

the new password to access the GPON Device.

 

 

 

 

Retype to Confirm

Type the new password again for confirmation.

 

 

 

 

Apply

Click Apply to save your changes back to the GPON Device.

 

 

 

 

Cancel

Click Cancel to begin configuring this screen afresh.

 

 

 

5.4 Transceiver

Click Maintenance > System > Transceiver to view your GPON Device’s current transceiver status and configure alarm thresholds. The optical SFP transceiver’s support for the Digital Diagnostics Monitoring Interface (DDMI) function lets you monitor the transceiver’s parameters to perform component monitoring, fault isolation and failure prediction tasks. This allows proactive, preventative network maintenance to help ensure service continuity. The values in the following figure are an example for reference only. See the table for details about the normal parameter ranges.
