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
