User Sessions
TimeProvider 100 user sessions can occur in two ways:
1. Locally with a serial connection
2. Remotely with a Telnet connection.
Either way, a userID and password are required. All TimeProvider 100 sessions are
enabled with the same userID and a single password. There can be up to eight
simultaneous Telnet sessions. Remote sessions time out after 10 minutes with no
entry. A serial session times out after 60 minutes with no entry.
Logon UserID
The factory default userID is
admin
and can be changed by an administrator with
the
set user
command. See set user , on page 83 for more information.
Password
The factory default password is
tp100
and can be changed by an administrator with
the
set user
command. See set user , on page 83 for more information.
To avoid a possible service call to gain access to the TimeProvider 100,
Symmetricom recommends that you record any changes made to the password.
System Configurations
When TimeProvider 100 is first powered up, TimeProvider 100 will load a factory
configuration. Users can modify the configuration parameters and save a backup
copy at any time. The backup configuration in the backup copy can be restored at
any time. During a system reboot, if the backup configuration is available, it will be
used. Otherwise, the factory configuration will be used.
