Cabletron Systems 1800 Switch User Manual

Although the entries for the various passwords appear blank,
default values exist; if you change one, be sure you do not
duplicate an existing password.
If there is a error in the configuration for alarm reporting, a message will
be displayed at the top or bottom of the screen. The possible messages are:
Primary Alarm Reporting Error –
will appear if the software that drives the
alarm output device is unable to output to the device.
Primary NOT Configured –
will appear if a
Primary Alarm Output ID
is not
specified.
Errmsg.txt Database Error –
will appear if the error message file cannot
be found. (This might happen if a software update was not correctly
installed.) To correct this, the file can be transferred from a remote
SmartSwitch or copied from a locally attached PC (with Procomm), as
described on page 19-4.
Database and System Memory Values
Two sets of values exist for Node Defaults parameters: Database values exist in the
software, and are recorded as System Memory values when the node is booted. If the
port type is the same in both sets of values, both sets will be displayed.
Any change you make will be recorded as a Database value, and will be copied to the
System Memory side only if you press
[F7]
. Note that changes will not be actually be
saved to the database until you press
[F3]
to exit the record.
