CHAPTER 10 CYROS, THE OPERATING SYSTEM
This chapter explains various operating system features that are not covered in other chapters:
• creation of the host table
• creation of user accounts and passwords
• IP Accounting
Creation of the host table
CyROS allows identification of hosts by name. In the menu CONFIG =>SYSTEM=>HOSTS, each host is
assigned a number (1 to 32), and a host name (a maximum of 8 characters). The IP address to be associated
with this host name and the port to be used for telnet is then requested. This host name can be used in
aplications like ping and telnet, and in some other configuration menus.
Another way to identify hosts by name is to configure access to a DNS Server. This is done in the menu
CONFIG =>IP =>DNS CLIENT. The domain name where the router is located and two DNS Server IP
addresses are the only parameters.
Creation of user accounts and passwords
Four users are preset:
1 super with the password surt,
2 usr with no password,
3 auto with no password, and
4 pppauto with no password
