GE MDS ORBIT MCR User Manual

MDS 05-6632A01, Rev. F MDS Orbit MCR/ECR Technical Manual 165
Where the server-address corresponds to the desired server IP address.
All time on the device is defaulted to UTC (+0:00) time. Time that is gained by an NTP server will be
offset by the difference to UTC time. To properly ensure that the date and time reflected on the unit is
correctly displayed, configure the time offset in respect to location or manually.
From the CLI, to manually set the time offset, enter the offset in increments of 30 minutes. For example,
to enter -5 hours for the UTC offset:
% set system clock timezone-utc-offset -300
Manually setting the time offset will not take in account daylight savings. To set the time based on
location; choose the location based closest to the installation site. For New York, the offset is -5 hours
during daylight savings and will automatically become -4 hours when daylight savings ends.
% set system clock timezone-location America/New_York
Monitoring
Ensure the CLI is in operational mode. Follow the example below to view the state and statistics:
> show system clock

initial setup wizard.
 Latitude - in degrees
 Longitude - in degrees
 Altitude - in meters

% set system geographical-location altitude 1.0 latitude 43.117807 longitude -77.611896
User Management and Access Controls 3.7.3
Understanding
There are three user accounts/roles (administrator, technician and operator) for management access.
Users in the admin group have the highest privilege and can read everything in the tree that is readable,
write everything that is writable and can execute any of the requests.
Users in the tech group have less access than admin. Generally, the tech group cannot configure any
security-related configuration.
Users in the oper group can only view status and configuration. They do not have access to modify the
device configuration.
By default, the password for each account is the same as the username. Passwords should be changed by
users prior to deploying the device. For added security, the tech and oper accounts are disabled until their
respective passwords are changed. They can also be manually disabled.
When local user management is being used, passwords are stored in non-volatile memory using PKCS#5
based encryption.
User authentication is performed using either locally stored passwords or RADIUS.
