How do you default the Temperature Units on an AP9631 NMC to Fahrenheit?

BillP · ‎2021-07-01

I am upgrading AP9631 NMC's to AOS/SUMX 6.1.1.

Authentication is RADIUS, then local.

How do I default the temperature units to Fahrenheit for logons that occur via RADIUS authentication? The local account can be set, but I can't find it for those that logon via RADIUS.

If the RADIUS VSA supported it, we would use that. If it is not there, then it would be what you see under User Default Settings under Configuration->Security->Local Users or in the CLI with the userdflt command. This "default user settings" is the default settings for any new users to add (so it acts as a template for new users) and it is also the default system setting for certain things if the NMC cannot apply a user preference. So, for example, it uses this setting for email notifications since it doesn't know an email recipient's preferences.

Let me know if you have any other questions.
