Administering a Stinger System
Managing administrative access to the unit
For information about managing administrative sessions, see “Managing
administrative connections” on page 1-35.
Logging into the Stinger unit
To log into the Stinger unit for administrative tasks, use a profile that has write
permissions, as in the following example:
% telnet myStinger
User: admin
Password: mypassword
admin>
If you are already logged into the Stinger unit, make sure you are at the highest level
by entering the
list .. command (possibly more than once), as in the following
example:
admin> list ..
name = ““
physical-address* = { shelf-1 slot-1 1 }
line-interface = { yes esf b8zs eligible middle-priority inband wink-start
digi+
admin> list ..
error: at highest level
Creating a new administrative profile
You use the new user command to create a new administrative profile. You must then
activate and authenticate the new profile.
To create a new user profile based on the user profile admin , append admin to the new
user command. The following example shows how to create a new user profile
named test , with full administrative privileges:
admin> new user admin
USER/admin read
admin> set name = test
admin> set password = test-pw
admin> write
USER/admin written
To create a new user profile based on the user profile default , use the new user
command with no additional arguments. The following example shows how to create
a new user profile named
test2 , with default administrative privileges:
admin> new user
USER/default read
admin> set name = test2
admin> set password = my-password
admin> write
USER/test2 written
