Configuring Devices—Wizard
106 AlterPath OnBoard Administrator’s Guide
Three additional custom types may be assigned, but only if OnBoard
administrators have created customized scripts:
• custom1
• custom2
• custom3
Note: In most cases, the administrative user should not assign custom device
types. Assign a
custom N
type only if the default scripts and command
templates cannot be made to work and only if an OnBoard administrator has
created a custom expect script with the same number in its name. For details,
see Appendix A, “Advanced Device Configuration.”
Command Templates
As mentioned elsewhere in this document, command templates contain text
commands that are used to interact with connected service processors/devices.
The following table lists the default command templates and describes the
types of devices to which they apply. See “Understanding How the OnBoard
Manages Communications With Devices” on page 311” for how to test the
default command templates, and what to do if they do not work.
Also see “Command Templates” on page 321.
