Web Interface
When choosing a location for the LF Antenna module, seek the one with the shortest red
bars during the day, and the tallest green bars at night.
Each tick-mark along the bottom of the graph represents an hour, with extended tick marks
for 6 and 24-hour periods.
Each green or red vertical bar represents a 15-minute interval, with four bars per hour. The
most recent data is displayed on the right, and the data moves from right to left.
SYSTEM - General
Use this page to manage:
n
The network Hostname for the SyncServer.
n
Automatically check for software upgrades.
Hostname
: (Default: "SyncServer") The hostname identifies the SyncServer on the network
and is also an important element of NTP autokey authentication. When operating multiple
SyncServers on a network domain, or when using NTP autokey, replace the hostname with
a unique descriptive string composed of alphanumeric characters with no spaces or special
characters. The field has been programmed to reject invalid characters.
Software Update Availability Check
: (Default: Enabled) When enabled, the SyncServer checks
a file on the Symmetricom web site for software upgrades shortly after noon, local time,
Monday through Friday, as determined by the
Local Time Zone
setting on the
TIMING - Time
Zone
page. If the software
Release
and
Revision
on upgradeS300.txt are more recent than
that of the software on the SyncServer, the SyncServer displays a notice on the
STATUS -
General
page, and generates a
System Upgrade Alarm
on the
ADMIN - Alarms
page.
In order for the
Software Update Availability Check
to function, LAN1 must have:
n
Firewall access to the Internet (port 80)
n
A valid DNS server
To manually check if an upgrade is available, or if network conditions prevent
Software
Update Availability Check
from checking automatically, compare
http://up-
date.symmetricom.com/upgradeS300.txt
with the
STATUS - General
page.
For example, compare "Version=1.10" and "Last Checkpoint: 1.103" on upgradeS300.txt
with "Release Version 1.10 Build 1.103" on the
STATUS - General
page. Since the values are
the same, no upgrade is available.
Note: The default configuration of the
System Upgrade Alarm
on the
ADMIN - Alarms
page is
"Severity = Minor", "Send SNMP trap", "Write to log", and "Send email notification" when
upgrades become available. SNMP and alarm email must be configured correctly to func-
tion.
The user can also contact
Microsemi Customer Assistance
(on page 5) for information
about upgrades.
