The VxWorks Shell
The VxWorks shell, which is used for doing basic OA&M (the most
important of which is loadware upgrade), can be accessed via a serial
connection to the maintenance port or via a telnet connection. The shell is
protected from unauthorized access by a username and password. This
password is common across FTP, telnet and the serial port. If the shell is idle
for a period of time the password and username must be reentered to gain
access. This timeout defaults to 10 minutes, but can be set to any value
between 30 seconds and 4095 seconds (1 hour 8 minutes 15 seconds) using
the shell function shellTimeoutSet n where n is the desired timeout in seconds.
The current value of the shell timeout in seconds is returned by the shell
function shellTimeoutGet.
-> shellTimeoutSet 600
-> shellTimeoutGet
The shell (and FTP) password can be changed using the shell function
shellPasswordSet. Invoking this command will prompt you for the current
username, current password, new username, new password and a final
confirmation of the new password.
-> shellPasswordSet
Enter current username: username1
Enter current password: password1
Enter new username: username2
Enter new password: password2
Enter new password again to confirm: password2
The shell timeout, username and password are stored in NVRAM, so changes
are maintained across a reboot. The default username and password are
“vpsdseuser” and “welcome2vp” respectively.
Note: Once the shell username and password have been successfully
entered the user has complete access to all the VxWorks commands.
Incorrect usage of some shell commands will cause the VP to reboot and
may change operational behavior.
