Getting Started
Configuration Methods
2-4
The
Set
and
Define
commands make configuration changes to your SCS.
Set
Makes an immediate (but not permanent) change; the change will be lost when
the SCS is rebooted. To make the change permanent, you must also enter the
Save
command (discussed on page 12-189).
Define
Makes a permanent change, but the change doesn’t take effect until the SCS is
rebooted.
Define Port and Define SLIP settings take effect after the current user logs out.
Define Site takes effect when a site is started. Define Server, Define Telnet
Host, and Define Service settings take effect when the SCS is rebooted.
The
Show
,
Monitor
, and
List
commands display information about the SCS.
Show
Displays the current settings. Current settings include those made using the Set
command but not yet defined or saved as permanent changes.
Monitor
Displays current operating characteristics, which are updated every three
seconds until a key is pressed. Monitor commands may only be used by the
privileged user.
List
Displays settings that will take effect the next time the SCS is rebooted.
Clear
and
Purge
alter previously configured SCS settings.
Clear
Removes a configured setting immediately, but does not make a permanent
change.
Purge
Removes a configured setting permanently, but does not take effect until the
unit is rebooted.
Note:
Purge Port will take effect as soon as the port is logged out, and Purge Site will
take effect when a site starts.
2.1.3.3 Restricted Commands
Some commands require privileged (superuser) status. To obtain privileged status, you must enter the
privileged password. See
Privileged Password
on page 2-8 for instructions on entering and editing the
privileged password.
By default, the SCS prompt changes from Local> to Local>> to reflect privileged user status.
2.1.3.4 Abbreviating Commands
When configuring the Server via the command line, you only need to enter as many characters as are needed
to distinguish the keywords from one another. For example, the following two commands are equivalent:
Figure 2-3:
