Configuration Menu
The configuration menu presents the same functionality in configuring the Digi
CM as does the web interface, excluding the creation of custom menus. The
configuration menu is navigated by using the number representing the menu
item and the ESC key to return to earlier menus. Telnet to the Digi CM, log in
(username root, password dbps) and enter configmenu to start any
configuration. If you log in as admin, the configuration menu will automatically
appear.
Accessing the Configuration Menu
The configuration menu is available through a Telnet or SSH session to the
root user, system administrator, or port administrator. (Port administrator can
only change serial port parameters.) The configuration menu enables the
authorized users to configure the Digi CM with the same functionality as is
available with the web interface. The only functionality missing from the
configuration menu is the ability to create custom menus.
The root user, by default, is connected from a Telnet session to the Linux
command line. In order to access the configuration menu, the root user enters
configmenu at the command prompt. The configuration menu follows the
layout of the web interface.
Choices for the configuration menu are made by selecting the number of a
menu item. The ESC key allows you to move back a menu each time it is
selected. Sometimes only one menu item is presented; however, that single
menu item has two or more options that have to be configured.
Configuring SSH
1. Choose Serial Port Configuration and then an individual port number or 0
(zero) for all ports.
2. Choose Host mode configuration > Protocol > SSH.
