Introduction to the configuration menu
The configuration menu presents the same functionality in configuring the Digi CM unit as does the
web interface, excluding the creation of custom menus. The configuration menu is navigated by
using the number representing the menu item and the ESC key to return to earlier menus. Telnet to
the Digi CM unit, log in (username root, password dbps) and enter configmenu to start any
configuration. If you log in as admin, the configuration menu will automatically appear.
Access the configuration menu
The configuration menu is available through a Telnet or SSH session to the root user, system
administrator, or port administrator. (Port administrator can only change serial port parameters.)
The configuration menu enables the authorized users to configure the Digi CM unit with the same
functionality as is available with the web interface. The only functionality missing from the
configuration menu is the ability to create custom menus.
1 Telnet into the Digi CM unit. The root user, by default, is connected from a Telnet session to the
Linux command line.
2 Enter configmenu at the command prompt. The configuration menu follows the layout of the
web interface.
Choices for the configuration menu are made by selecting the number of a menu item. The ESC key
allows you to move back a menu each time it is selected. Sometimes only one menu item is
presented; however, that single menu item has two or more options that have to be configured.
Configure SSH
1 Choose Serial Port Configuration and then an individual port number or 0 (zero) for all ports.
2 Choose Host mode configuration > Protocol > SSH.
