3.2 Host Table
Setup
Monitor DSR: You can set this field to Yes if you wire the
terminal's DTR signal pin 20 (DB25) to the
IOLAN+'s DSR signal pin 3 on the RJ45
connector ( see Cabling Guide for DB25 pin
assignments). When you turn the terminal off, it
will reset the IOLAN+ port, which tells the Unix
host to kill the user's processes.
In order for IOLAN+ to connect easily to machines on the
network it must know the IP addresses of the other
computers. IOLAN+ can have its own internal table of IP
addresses set up in the host table. This is a 'local' naming
system only. IOLAN+ can also use the name server utility of
your Unix system (consult your Unix system manual and
section 2-6, Tips ).
The Host Address Menu is accessed from the Administration
Menu by selecting the host entry. The host table can contain
up to 10 addresses. Each entry consists of a host name and
its corresponding IP address.
** Administrator **
Entry Host name
1 [fred ]
2 [astro ]
3 [router ]
4 [perle ]
and so on...
