2.3 SETTING UP THE LOGIN PASSWORD
You can require that any or all of the terminal users enter a password when
they log in. This is called the login password. The factory specified login pass-
word is "access".
If
you define the LOGIN characteristic as ENABLED for a
terminal, the login password is required at that terminal (see Section 2.7.5,
Port Administration Characteristics).
It
is recommended that you set up a new
password after initial installation of the server and terminals.
To set up the login password, enter the DEFINE LOGIN PASSWORD com-
mand. Here is an example using the password D4E5F6:
LOCAL>
DEFINE LOGIN PASSWORD
PASSWORD>
D4ESF6
(not echoed)
VERIFICATION>
D4ESF6
(not echoed)
LOCAL>
Your new login password is stored in the permanent database. It becomes oper-
ational when you initialize the MUXserver 100 or
if
the applicable user logs
into the server.
If
you wish to have it take effect immediately, refer to Chapter
3, Section 3.1 (MANAGING THE MUXserver 100).
2.4 SETTING UP THE SERVER CHARACTERISTICS
You can display the current server characteristics by entering the SHOW
SERVER command.
LOCAL>
SHOW SERVER
or
LOCAL>
SHOW SERVER
SHOW SERVER lists the characteristics stored in both the permanent and
operational databases. Refer to Chapter 5, Section 5.33 (SHOW SERVER) for
a sample of the SHOW SERVER display.
When you set up the server characteristics, normally you want the values you
choose for the characteristics to be retained each time you initialize the server.
Therefore, you use the DEFINE SERVER command which updates the perma-
nent database.
