Using configuration menus
Setting parameters
Parameters referred to as enumerated parameters have predefined sets of values from which
you make a selection. Other parameters have text fields into which you enter values.
Setting enumerated parameters
You modify enumerated parameters by placing the cursor beside the parameter and pressing
the Right Arrow key, Enter, or Return until the proper value appears.
Opening edit fields
To open an edit field for a text-based parameter (such as a password):
1
Press the Down Arrow key or Ctrl-N (next) to move the cursor to that parameter (for
example, Telnet PW).
2
Press the Right Arrow key or Enter.
An edit field opens, delimited by brackets, as shown under the Telnet PW parameter in the
following example:
40-D00 Mod Config
Module Name=
Ether options...
WAN options...
SNMP options...
OSPF options...
OPPF global options...
Route Pref...
TServ options...
Bridging=No
IPX Routing=No
AppleTalk=No
Shared Prof=No
Telnet Security=Global
Telnet PW:
[ ]
RIP Policy=Poison Rvrs
RIP Summary=No
ICMP Redirects=Accept
A blinking text cursor within the brackets indicates that you can start typing text. If the
field already contains text, it is cleared when you type a character.
3
To modify only a few characters of existing text, use the arrow keys to position the cursor,
then delete or overwrite the characters. To close the edit field and accept the new text,
press Enter.
