Basic Configuration; Changing The Server Name; Changing The Local Prompt - Lantronix SCS Reference Manual

Getting Started
To change the privileged password, use the Set/Define Server Privileged Password command (discussed
on page 12-123). Figure 2-11 displays an example of this command.
Local> SET PRIVILEGED
Password> system (not echoed)
Local>> DEFINE SERVER PRIVILEGED PASSWORD hippo
The privileged password is case-insensitive, so it does not need to be enclosed in
Note:
quotes.

2.4 Basic Configuration

The following sections discuss features that will identify and personalize each SCS.

2.4.1 Changing the Server Name

Each SCS is initially configured with a server name in the form of SCS_xxxxxx, where xxxxxx represents
the last three segments of its hardware address. However, you can give the Server a custom name of up to
16 alphanumeric characters using the following command.
Local>> DEFINE SERVER NAME "CommServer"
The server name must be enclosed in quotes to preserve case.
Note:

2.4.2 Changing the Local Prompt

The prompt each user receives (usually a Local_xx> prompt, where xx is the port number) is configurable
in a variety of ways. For a basic prompt, enter a string similar to the following.
Local> SET SERVER PROMPT "Server> "
Server>
For a customized prompt, optional key combinations can be added to the prompt string. See Set/Define
Server Prompt on page 12-123 for more information. Placing a space after the end of the prompt is
recommended to improve readability.
Figure 2-14 displays a few examples of commands used to change prompts. In the examples, the first
command line results in the prompt used in the second command line, and so on.
Local> SET SERVER PROMPT "Port %n: "
Port 5: SET SERVER PROMPT "%D:%s: "
SCS:LabServ: SET SERVER PROMPT "%p%s_%n%P%% "
Port_5[NoSession]_5>%
