Creating a Pilot Configuration File
11-15
Enhancing the Pilot Configuration File
You are now ready to enhance the pilot configuration file. Use Configuring
Routers or Configuring Customer Access and Trunks (BNX Software) and the
protocol configuration manuals to learn how to
• Configure additional interfaces
• Modify the Site default parameter settings
• Implement optional features (for example, route filters)
• Create new configuration files in the three operating modes: remote, local, and
dynamic
Securing the Router or BNX Platform
You may want to take some steps to immediately secure the router or BNX
platform by
— Restricting read/write access
— Setting secure mode
Restricting Read/Write Access
Site Manager uses SNMP to monitor and control the router or BNX platform. To
safeguard against unauthorized SNMP access, we recommend that you restrict
read/write access as soon as possible. You restrict read/write access by
reconfiguring the SNMP community named “public.”
When you run the Quick-Start installation script (the install.bat file) and accept
the default community, the script creates a read/write SNMP community named
“public” with a wildcard manager (0.0.0.0). We strongly recommend that you
restrict this read/write access as follows:
Note: Be sure to boot with the pilot.cfg file when enhancing your pilot
configuration.
