Starting Multiple Sessions; Controlling Multiple Sessions; Telnet Sessions - Digi PortServer II User Manual

Starting multiple sessions

You initiate multiple sessions one at a time from the command line. (Start up one
session, escape to the command line prompt, start another session, escape to the
command line, start another session, and so on, up to the maximum number of
sessions configured for that port).
To temporarily escape from a session to the PortServer II command prompt to start
another session, type the telnet escape character followed by a Carriage Return.
You may now start another session.
