Descibes how to add bit values to hex values when configuring OEM modes or Services on the Jetstream or CS9000.

Solution:

OEM modes and Services are shown with Binary Bit Values and Hexadecimal Values. You can add the Hex values to obtain a total Hex value or add the Binary Bit value and convert it to a Hex value to be entered in the OEM or Services fields.

Each OEM mode or Services (CS9000 only) has a bit value. Using the bit value create a binary value then convert this value to a hexadecimal value to be entered in the OEM or Services field.

The OEM Mode default value is 0000. The CS9000 Services default value is FFFF (which is all services enabled).

OEM modes are added up for each mode you wish to enable.

The CS9000 Services can either be added up or subtracted.

Examples:

OEM mode "Bypass Password" has a bit value of 1 and and hex value of 002, "Disable Routed" has a bit value of 2 and a hex value of 004.
The hexadecimal sum value is 002 + 004 = 006 hex.

Service "Routed" has a bit value of 1 and hex value of 0002, "SSH" has a bit value of 3 and hex value of 0008, and SNMP has a bit value of 5 and hex value of 0020. To enable only those Services you then add up the values.
The hexadecimal sum would be 0002 + 0008 + 0020 = 002A hex.

Note: the above example would be equal to FFFF - all disabled services. Example FFFF - 0001 - 0004 - 0010 - 0040 = FFAA

Remember that these values must total a Hexidecimal value ... you may want to use a Hex calculator for assistance.
Example of Services in Hex: 0004 + 0008 + 0010 + 0020 + 0040 = 007c

Note that some OEM modes are affected by Services on the CS9000 and some Server parameters will affect the Services.
The CS9000 Services will, by default, reflect the default value of FFFF less the Services that are disabled. Example, the Services will display fffe (FFFF - 0001) if only DHCP is disabled.
