Symmetricom XL-GPS User Manual

1

F100 provides two groups of commands: 

•

Group 1, available through the keypad and the command line, provides access to network port 
settings and hardware/Firmware status information.

•

Group 2, available through the command line only, provides commands for changing system 
firmware, changing NTP & SNMP parameters, changing the user name/password, resetting the 
unit, and pinging other network devices. 

: The F100 commands have the capacity to remove the XL-GPS from the network and disable 

the XL-GPS’s system firmware. Use judiciously.

: Saving changes to any F100 parameter using the keypad will reboot the XL-GPS. 

Some of the F100 command line commands also reboot the XL-GPS. These are identified in the 
following documentation.

You can use both the keypad and the command line interface to access the following parameters:

•

 XL-GPS contains a unique Ethernet or Media Access Control (MAC) address 

comprised of a unique number assigned to the manufacturer, and a unique number assigned to 
the unit. This is factory set and cannot be changed.

•

: Sets a static Internet Protocol (IP) address for the unit. 

•

: Sets a valid subnet-mask used in IP addressing. Subnetting allows for the more 

efficient allocation of network addresses and management of network traffic.

•

: The address of the router that handles packets addressed to IP devices outside 

the local-area network.

•

: View network port setting: 10 or AUTO. 

•

: Enables or disables remote access through the XL-GPS’s standard network 

port. Enabling Remote Lockout limits users to the front-panel keypad or Serial I/O port.
