Imask_7Bits; Inactivity_Timer - Bay Networks 6300 Supplement Manual

Remote Annex 6300 Supplement to the Remote Annex Administrator's Guide for UNIX

imask_7bits

This asynchronous port parameter enables an RA 6300 to mask input to
seven bits. When disabled, the RA 6300 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.
SLIP and PPP will not work if this parameter is enabled.

inactivity_timer

This asynchronous port parameter specifies the number of minutes that
a port can remain inactive. If the timer expires, the RA 6300 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).
