Cisco MGX 8230 Edge Concentrator Installation and Configuration
Release 1.1.31, Part Number 78-11215-03 Rev. B0, May 2001
Chapter 5 Configuring the MGX 8230 Shelf
MGX 8230 MGX to BPX Feeder
Step 8 Optionally configure a time zone for the node. Use cnftmzn to specify a time zone in the Western
Hemisphere. To configure a time zone outside the Western Hemisphere, first specify Greenwich Mean
Time (GMT) with cnftmzn then specify the offset from GMT by using cnftmzngmt:
• cisco22.1.1.PXM.a> cnftmzn <timezone>
where timezone is 1 for GMT, 2 for EST, 3 for CST, 4 for MST, 5 for PST.
• cisco22.1.1.PXM.a> cnftmzngmt <timeoffsetGMT>
where timeoffsetGMT is the offset in hours from GMT. The range of possible values for timeoffsetGMT
is -12 through +12.
Step 9 Execute the cnfstatsmgr command to specify the IP address of the workstation that runs the Cisco WAN
Manager application.
Before it sends statistics, the MGX 8230 must have the IP address of the workstation with this
application. The syntax is:
>cnfstatsmgr <IP_Addr> where IP_Addr is the IP address of the workstation.
If the node has a redundant MGX 8230 PXM, it automatically receives the same IP addresses and
configuration as the primary MGX 8230 PXM. With the IP addresses in place, you can configure the
logical ports for the broadband interface through the CiscoView application or the CLI.
Step 10 Add one or more users by executing adduser once for each new user.
Note that the access privilege level is case-sensitive as the syntax description indicates. After you enter
the privilege level, the system prompts for a new password for the user. (This password parameter does
not appear in the help information for adduser.)
adduser <user_Id> <accessLevel>
user_Id is 1–12 alphanumeric characters.
accessLevel is the case-sensitive privilege level. It can be ANYUSER or within the range
GROUP1–GROUP5. For example, to specify a privilege level 2, type GROUP2.
After you enter a user-name and privilege level, the system prompts for a password. The password is a
string of 5–15 characters. If you press Return without entering a password, the system assigns the default
password “newuser.”
Step 11 Optionally change your password or another user’s password by executing:
cnfpasswd [username]
username is the name of another user whose password you are changing. That user must have a privilege
level that is lower than your privilege. To change your own password, enter cnfpasswd with no
username.
Step 12 To specify the MGX 8230 as a feeder, execute the cnfswfunc command:
cnfswfunc <-ndtype>
and follow -ndtype with “fdr.”
Step 13 Configure an external clock if needed:
• cnfextclk <clock-type>: “1” is for T1 connections, “2” is for E1 connections.
For external clocking with the PXM-UI back card, the Stratum level must be set to “4.”
• cnfclklevel 4: to enable Stratum 4 clocking.
For external clocking with the PXM-UI-S3 back card, the Stratum level must be set to “3.”
• cnfclklevel 3: to enable Stratum 3 clocking.
