LOGIN

Start a secure ICOM/SCOM connection to the receiver

Platform:

OEM729, OEM7600, OEM7700, OEM7720, PwrPak7, CPT7, CPT7700, SMART7-I, SMART7-SI

When ICOM/SCOM ports have security enabled (see the IPSERVICE command), a session to the ICOM/SCOM port can be established but commands are refused until a valid LOGIN command is issued. Both the UserName and Password are required. The LOGIN command checks the supplied credentials against known UserNames/Passwords and determines if the login is successful or not. A successful login permits the secured ICOM/SCOM command interpreter to accept further commands and returns OK. An unsuccessful login does not release the secured ICOM/SCOM command interpreter and returns Login Failed.

Entering a LOGIN command on any command port other than the ICOM/SCOM port has no effect, regardless of whether the UserName/Password is correct. In this case, the appropriate response (OK or Login Failed) is returned, but there is no effect on the command interpreter.

When security is enabled, access to the port is restricted unless a valid name and password are supplied. It does not mean there is data encryption enabled. Username is case-insensitive and password is case-sensitive.

3	username			Provide the user name for the login command. The user name is not case sensitive.
