Enabling Remote Servers
The Applications Setup dialog box lets you set up support for Telnet Server, TFTP (Trivial File
Transfer Protocol), WEB Server, and Dumb Terminal Management in the ProxyServer.
Telnet/TFTP
Telnet is an applications level protocol commonly found in IP-based networks that allows terminal
emulation at a remote workstation. To do this, there is usually a server at a central point that allows
multiple clients to connect and request to use the service. The service could be anything. Usually it is
terminal emulation. The ProxyServer has a Telnet server that allows multiple clients to connect and
request to use Telnet service, usually terminal emulation. Telnet is most often implemented over TCP.
TFTP is a file transfer protocol that uses UDP and provides a simple method for transferring files
between two nodes (the server and the client).
To display the Applications Setup dialog box, click Others on the Proxy Setup main menu.
WEB Server
The Web Server interface allows you to configure the ProxyServer remotely through your Web
browser on your local network. Enter the IP address of the ProxyServer in the Location (Address)
field of your browser to launch the Multi-Tech ProxyServer Configuration site.
By scrolling down the browser scroll bar, you are presented with a link to log in to the ProxyServer
configuration menu ("Click Here to Login"), as well as links to Multi-Tech's WWW site, FTP site, and
Tech Support site.
