Edit the Configuration Files

In Windows, edit the configuration files using a text editor such as Notepad or Wordpad. For more
information, see

“D: Network Time Protocol (NTP)” on page 135

.

If using the preconfigured FTP server (downloaded from

http://www.ntp-systems.com/zip/warftpd1.zip

),

the FTP places the configuration files in

C:\Symmetricom

, the default or home directory of “anonymous”.

Note:

Follow these guidelines when editing the configuration files:

If the editor displays odd 'box' characters or the lines of text don't wrap properly, close the file

without saving changes and switch to a different text editor.

Don't rename or save the configuration files as a new file type.

Some text editors encode end-of-line carriage returns that cause errors when XL-GPS refers to

the file. Notepad, WordPad, Microsoft Word, and Vim don't seem to have this problem.

The configuration files are automatically transferred to/from the FTP server in binary format.

They retain the DOS or UNIX file conventions of the editor. XL-GPS works with either format.

Move the Configuration Files Back to the XL-GPS

Reboot Warning:

The following steps cause the XL-GPS to reboot.

Using the XL-GPS’s command line, enter one of the commands below, replacing
<

IP Address

> with the IP address of your workstation/FTP server.

To move the NTP config files, type:

>f100 config ntp set host:<IP Address> dir:<subdir>

To move the SNMP config file, type:

>f100 config snmp set host:<IP Address> dir:<subdir>

To move the NTP and SNMP config files, type:

>f100 config ntp snmp set host:<IP Address> dir:<subdir>

Here’s an example of a successful SNMP and NTP config file transfer:

>>f100 config set ntp snmp host:192.168.0.1 dir:

Host config ip 192.168.0.1 already configured
