System name
Defines the name of the VCS. Choose a name
that uniquely identifies the system.
Save
Click here to save your changes.
Restart
Click here to restart the system.
You must save your changes and
restart the system for any changes
made via this page (apart from the
Session time out) to take effect.
About the System Name
The system name is used to identify the
VCS. It appears in various places in the web
interface, and in the display on the front panel
of the unit (so that you can identify it when it
is in a rack with other systems). The system
name is also used by TANDBERG’s TMS.
If no system name is specified, the LAN1 IPv4
address will be shown instead.
We recommend that you give the VCS a name
that allows you to easily and uniquely identify
it.
Session time out (minutes)
Sets the number of minutes that an
administration session (HTTPS, Telnet or SSH)
may be inactive before the session is timed
out. A value of 0 turns session time outs off.
Telnet service
Determines whether the VCS can be accessed
via Telnet.
SSH service
Determines whether the VCS can be accessed
via SSH and SCP.
About Administrator Access settings
While it is possible to administer the
TANDBERG VCS via a PC connected directly
to the unit via a serial cable, you may wish to
access the system remotely over IP.
You can do this using either or both:
the
•
web interface
via HTTPS
a
•
command line interface
via SSH or Telnet.
By default, access via HTTPS and SSH is
enabled; access via Telnet is disabled.
You can also enable access via HTTP.
However, this mode works by redirecting HTTP
calls to the HTTPS port, so HTTPS must also
be enabled for access via HTTP to function.
!
By default, access via HTTPS and SSH
is enabled; access via Telnet is
disabled. To securely manage the VCS
you should disable Telnet, using the encrypted
HTTPS and SSH protocols instead. For further
security, disable HTTPS and SSH as well and
use the serial port to manage the system.
!
TMS accesses the VCS via the web
server. If HTTPS mode is turned off,
TMS will not be able to access it.
HTTPS service
Determines whether the VCS can be accessed
via the web server. This must be
On
to enable
both web interface and TMS access.
HTTP service
On
: HTTP calls will be redirected to the HTTPS
port.
Off
: no HTTP access will be available.
