Imask_7Bits; Inactivity_Timer; Inet_Addr - Bay Networks 5390 Administering

Configuration Parameters

imask_7bits

This asynchronous port parameter enables the Model 5390 server to mask input to seven bits. When
disabled, the Model 5390 server expects eight-bit ASCII input. This parameter has no effect on
transmitted characters. A Y enables this parameter, an N disables it. The default is N.

inactivity_timer

This asynchronous port parameter specifies the number of minutes that a port can remain inactive.
If the timer expires, the Model 5390 server terminates all sessions and resets the port.
You can use the input_is_activity and output_is_activity parameters to define activity as input to
the port or output from the port. Setting these parameters to N causes the timer to run independent
of activity. Allowable values range from 0 to 255. The default is 0 (timer disabled).
If you want a port to reset after a given number of minutes, regardless of any activity, you must also
set the following parameters:
inactivity_timer
input_is_activity
output_is_activity
type
These setting are required because the timer does not start until one of the following events occur:
1
Input occurs and input_is_activity is set to Y.
2
Output occurs and output_is_activity is set to Y.
3
A port with type set to dial_in starts (regardless of the value of the control_lines
parameter).

inet_addr

This Model 5390 parameter defines the Model 5390 server's IP address. This 32-bit address contains
four 8-bit fields separated by periods. Each field contains a number ranging from 0 to 255 or a
C2-26
NOTE: SLIP and PPP will not work if this parameter is enabled.
