The following list summarizes platform administration functions, by button in the view:
Provides platform summary data, available to the Windows clipboard. Includes all summary information shown in main Platform Administration view, plus installed modules, and so on.
For dialogs to change platform login access (user name and password). In QNX-based platforms this is simple, as there is only one platform administrator. Windows-based platforms offer a choice of a single (digest) platform account, or use of Windows OS user accounts (basic authentication).
For a dialog to change the HTTP port for the host’s platform daemon from (default) port 3011 to some other port.
(Available only if a AX-3.7 or later host that is licensed for SSL) For a dialog to enable/disable secure SSL/TLS connections to the host’s platform daemon, specify the TCP port used, plus other settings.
For a dialog to change the hosts’s current date, time, and time zone, as used by that host’s OS.
(QNX-based only) For a dialog to enable/disable both FTP and Telnet access to the JACE, or change the default port number used by each one.
FTP and Telnet pose security risks. We strongly recommend you keep each one disabled, unless otherwise directed by Systems Engineering.
Provides a dialog to change the log level of different processes that can appear in the platform daemon output.
Provides a window in which you can observe debug messages from the platform daemon in real time, including the ability to pause.
Provides a dialog to change the module content level of the host. Used very infrequently.
Make a complete backup of all configuration on the connected host platform, including all station files as well as other Niagara configuration.
One way to launch the Commissioning Wizard, as an alternative to right-clicking on Platform in the Nav tree.
Provides a method to reboot a JACE platform, which restarts all software including the OS and JVM, then the platform daemon, then (if so configured in the Application Director) the installed station. If you click this, a confirmation dialog appears. If you answer yes, the JACE is rebooted and the platform connection drops.
