BelAirOS User Guide AP Auto-configuration

Document Number BDTM00000-A02 Draft
server is
bn_00_0d_67_0c_21_76
. The username must be in lower case
and must exist in the FTP server.
—The FTP password used is the md5sum of the username. To obtain this,
do
echo <username> | md5sum
. Omit the spaces and dash at the end of
the md5sum output.
3 In the FTP home directory for the user, the AP looks for a script file named
bn_config.cfg
.
Configuration
Download Profile
With the configuration download profile you specify:
• the filename of the script file
• the server from which to get the script file
• a user-name and password
You can specify the server by either its IP address or its name. If both are
specified, the IP address has precedence. The default name is
belairconfig.com
.
The script file is downloaded and executed only during a startup. If the script on
the server changes, it is not sent to the AP until the next time the AP reboots
or starts up.
Pre-requisites To use a configuration download profile, your server must be configured with
the appropriate user accounts and passwords. The account must contain a valid
script file.
Also, if you identify the server with a name, you need a DNS server to resolve
names to IP addresses.
Using a Configuration
Download Profile
/system/set config-download [server <name_or_ip_addr>]
[auto-conf-protocol {ftps|ftp|tftp]
[filename <filename>]
[user <user_name>]
[password <pword>]
{enabled|disabled}
/system/show config-download status
These commands provision the configuration download profile.
The server may be identified by supplying either its IP address or providing its
name. The default server name is
belairconfig.com
. The default protocol is
FTPS. The default user name and password is
anonymous
. The default filename
is
auto-config.txt
. By default, the configuration download file is disabled.
