Chapter 3: Remote Operation

.

Once you have logged in from the Configuration Control Login page, you can edit 
TimeVault parameters.  To edit ACTS parameters, go to the ACTS Control page.  To edit 
NTP or SNMP parameters, go to the Network Control page and click either NTP 
Configuration or SNMP Configuration to reach their respective remote control pages. 

Enter the new values in the configuration files or grids (if you minimized your browser 
window, you may have to scroll over to see the file or the grid) or by choosing a radio 
button selection.  To submit your changes, click Submit Changes located just below the 
display of configurable values.  Any change you make to network parameters (IP Address, 
Subnet Mask, Default Gateway, and/or DHCP) causes TimeVault to reset.  This process 
takes a moment, during which the parameter display is blank.

If the unit does not reset, check the status message to see why, re-enter the values, then 
click Submit Changes again.   

Configuring ACTS parameters through the TimeVault web interface involves editing the 
values in the “acts.conf” file.  You can do this from the ACTS Configuration page (for 
details on configuring ACTS using serial/Telnet commands, see page 4-67).  See 
Appendix E for more ACTS information.

To configure ACTS parameters over the Internet:

1. Log in at the Configuration Control Login page and click  ACTS Control.

The ACTS Configuration page appears, displaying the ACTS Configuration File 
window.

2. Scroll through the “acts.conf” file, which contains the following default information:

number=3034944774,
line=9,
inter=1,

retry=5,
