SLB™ Branch Office Manager User Guide
Enables access to this port through a raw TCP connection. Disabled by default:
Note:
When using raw TCP connections to transmit binary data, or where the
break command (escape sequence) is not required, set the Break Sequence of
the respective device port to null (clear it).
Automatically assigned Telnet, SSH, and TCP port numbers. You may override
this value, if desired.
If selected, the SLB branch office manager requires user authentication before
granting access to the port. Authenticate is selected by default for Telnet in and
SSH in, but not for TCP in.
To cause an idle Telnet, SSH or TCP connection to disconnect after a specified
number of seconds, select the checkbox and enter a value from 1 to 1800
seconds. The default is no timeout.
Number of seconds before a timeout.
IP address used for this device port so a user can Telnet, SSH, or establish a raw
TCP connection to this address and connect directly to the device port. The
optional netmask bits specify the netmask to use for the IP address. For
example, for a netmask of 255.255.255.0 specify 24 bits. If the netmask bits are
not specified, a default netmask used for the class of network that the IP address
falls in will be used.
For Telnet and SSH, the default TCP port numbers (22 and 23, respectively) are
used to connect to the device port. For raw TCP, the TCP port number defined
for TCP In to the device port is used.
Note:
If Ethernet Bonding is enabled, assigning individual IP Addresses to
Device Ports is not supported. Note that the IP address will be bound to Eth1
only, so if Eth2 is connected and configured, and Eth1 is not, this feature will not
work.
The speed with which the device port exchanges data with the attached serial
device.
From the drop-down list, select the baud rate. Most devices use 9600 for the
administration port, so the device port defaults to this value. Check the equipment
settings and documentation for the proper baud rate.
Number of data bits used to transmit a character. From the drop-down list, select
the number of data bits. The default is 8 data bits.
The number of stop bit(s) used to indicate that a byte of data has been transmitted.
From the drop-down list, select the number of stop bits. The default is 1.
Parity checking is a rudimentary method of detecting simple, single-bit errors.
From the drop-down list, select the parity. The default is none.
A method of preventing buffer overflow and loss of data. The available methods
include none, xon/xoff (software), and RTS/CTS (hardware). The default is none.
For serial devices connected to the device port, displays a login prompt and
authenticates users. Successfully authenticated users are logged into the
command line interface.
The default is disabled. This is the correct setting if the device port is the endpoint
for a network connection.
