About the ActivID UNIX Terminal

The functions of the ActivID UNIX terminal are available using dedicated scripts.

Prerequisites: The appliance must be connected to a keyboard and a monitor.

Access to the UNIX terminal is protected by a password associated to the ActivID Appliance administrator (appadmin) UNIX account.

Note: Entering an incorrect password repeatedly will block UNIX terminal access for a few minutes.

The following shell scripts are available for configuration updates and/or administration:

Script	Description
configure_keyboard_layout.sh	Configure the keyboard layout (default is US English (us))
configure_network.sh	Modify the appliance hostname and network
reboot.sh.	Reboot the appliance
restart_activid_console.sh	Restart the ActivID Console
shutdown.sh	Shut down the appliance

Note: You will be automatically logged out after five (5) minutes has elapsed between two user inputs (such as menu selection or data entry) validated by pressing Enter. This does not apply if an operation takes longer to complete.
