for more detailed command descriptions and
instructions.
Setting the System Name
The system name is the name that identifies the PortMaster for SNMP queries, IPX
protocol routing, and CHAP authentication. Enter a name that is valid for your network.
The system name can have up to 16 characters, and appears in place of the
Command>
prompt on PortMaster products that have it set.
To set the system name, use the following command:
Command>
set
sysname
String
Setting the Administrative Password
The PortMaster is shipped without a password. Press
Enter
at the
password
prompt
when accessing the PortMaster for the first time. The password is an ASCII printable
string of up to 16 characters used to access the PortMaster administration features. Only
the administrator can change the password.
To set the password, use the following command
Command>
set
password
[
Password
]
Using the
set password
command and pressing
Enter
resets the password to the
default value, which is no password.
Setting the Dynamic Host Control Protocol (DHCP) Server
The
set dhcp server
command supports the Cable Modem Telephone Return Interface
Specification (CMTRIS) developed by the Multimedia Cable Network System (MCNS)
Partners Limited. The CMTRIS solves the problem of limited upstream bandwidth in a
cable modem system by providing for the use of a standard telephone interface for
upstream traffic. Downstream traffic travels on the coaxial cable.
The specification requires that a cable modem be able to use the telephone interface to
request and receive the cable interface address and configuration information via a
dynamic host control protocol (DHCP) request.
