System Maintenance & Information
This chapter leads you through SMT menus 24.8 to 24.11.
18.1 Command Interpreter Mode
The Command Interpreter (CI) is a part of the main router firmware. The CI provides much of the same
functionality as the SMT, while adding some low-level setup and diagnostic functions. The CI can be
entered from the SMT by selecting menu 24.8. Access can be either by Telnet or by a serial connection to
the console port, although some commands are only available with a serial connection. See the included
CD or the zyxel.com web site for more detailed information on CI commands. Enter 8 from
Menu 24 -
System Maintenance
. A list of valid commands can be found by typing
help
or
?
at the command
prompt. Type “exit” to return to the SMT main menu when finished.

18.2 Call Control Support
The Prestige provides two call control functions: budget management and call history. Please note that this
menu is only applicable when
Encapsulation
is set to
PPPoE
or
PPTP
in menu 4 or menu 11.1.
The budget management function allows you to set a limit on the total outgoing call time of the Prestige
within certain times. When the total outgoing call time exceeds the limit, the current call will be dropped
and any future outgoing calls will be blocked.
Call history chronicles preceding incoming and outgoing calls.
To access the call control menu, select option 9 in menu 24 to go to
Menu 24.9 - System Maintenance -
Call Control
, as shown in the next table.

18.2.1 Budget Management
Menu 24.9.1 shows the budget management statistics for outgoing calls. Enter 1 from
Menu 24.9 - System
Maintenance - Call Control
to bring up the following menu.
Figure 18-4 Budget Management
The total budget is the time limit on the accumulated time for outgoing calls to a remote node. When this
limit is reached, the call will be dropped and further outgoing calls to that remote node will be blocked.
After each period, the total budget is reset. The default for the total budget is 0 minutes and the period is 0
hours, meaning no budget control. You can reset the accumulated connection time in this menu by entering
the index of a remote node. Enter 0 to update the screen. The budget and the reset period can be configured
in menu 11.1 for the remote node.

18.3 Time and Date Setting
Time and Date Setting is a software mechanism to set the time manually or get the current time and date
from an external server when you turn on your Prestige. Menu 24.10 allows you to update the time and date
settings of your Prestige.
The real time is then displayed in
the Prestige error logs and firewall logs. If you
do not choose a time service protocol that your timeserver will send when you turn on the Prestige, then
you can enter the time manually but each time the system is booted, the time and date will be reset to
2000/01/01 00:00:00.
Select menu 24 in the main menu to open
Menu 24 - System Maintenance
