The registration procedure does not require a restart to take effect on a device running the
registered software.
When executed without arguments, the install command will display the significant information
needed to manufacture the device software key. The device IP address may also be required. No
additional information is needed to create the feature package keys.
The key=<software key> argument allows the entry of an eight-character alphanumeric software
registration that is unique to this UMI device. If an invalid key is entered, a MINOR alarm is
generated to that effect. The passwords are not altered. The rstpass command has been created
to reset the passwords should that become necessary.
The fpkey=<software key> argument allows the entry of an eight-character alphanumeric
software registration that is unique to a port, and software feature package, on this UMI device for
the current software build. The specific feature package referenced by the software key becomes
immediately available on the port without subsequent download. The <software key> has effect
on only one port. Other ports on the device are not affected. If the same software feature package
is needed on multiple ports, then multiple feature package keys are applied.
The install command is always available.
5.20 RSTPASS ( Resetting the Password )
Syntax: rstpass [ key=<Password Key> ]
The rstpass command is a command whose function is to reset the password(s) of the device to
factory default values. This function was formerly performed as part of the software registration.
Breaking it out into a separate command allows the software to be registered without password
updates to take place.
When invoked without arguments, the rstpass command will display the relevant information
needed to generate the <Password Key>. This information is relayed to the technical support
staff. The generated key is then used with the key=<Password Key> argument. The rstpass
command should not be run between the time the key data is generated and the <Password
Key> is utilized. Similarly, if the device is restarted, the resultant <Password Key> will not
perform its intended function.
5.21 CONSOLE TIMEOUT
Syntax: timeout [off | <number of minutes>]
The UMI console uses a three-wire interface (RD, TD, GND), and the lead state of other signals
is not relevant. This would imply that the only way to change the state of the console is to
explicitly log in or log out, or via a reboot or reset, which forces the console to be logged out.
