Accessing the Terminal Interface
After connecting Ethernet and power, access the terminal interface:
1.
On your PC, configure a static IP address for the network interface that is connected to the device within
the following range:
192.168.2.2 - 192.168.2.254
2.
Open an SSH connection and log in.
Default IP address:
(DHCP is disabled)
192.168.2.1
Default credentials for mLinux version 4:
username:
mtadm
and password:
root
Note:
The above credentials do
NOT
have root privileges. As a result, many commands may not work unless
you use
sudo
(for super user permissions).
To use sudo, either execute :
sudo [command]
or start the root shell:
sudo -s
Then enter the mtadm password. The prompt changes to mtcap:/home/mtadm#
For tips on using sudo, go to
http://www.multitech.net/developer/software/mlinux/using-mlinux/log-in-
as-an-admin-post-production/
.
The following commands require sudo:
ln -sf /usr/share ...
hwclock
ifdown
ifup
mlinux-set-apn
pppd
killall
/etc/init.d/lora-packet-forwarder
Setting Time Zone, Time, and Date
To set the time zone, date, and time:
1.
Create a symbolic link from the zone info file for your location to /etc/localtime:
ln -fs /usr/share/zoneinfo/Europe/Zurich /etc/localtime
2.
Update the date and time to the current time:
date "2016-12-11 14:58:01"
