2.7.1 Session Control Characteristics
You can specify terminal characteristics to assist in coordinating terminal us-
ers' access to network services.
SESSION LIMIT
If
you wish to limit the number of service sessions for any terminal user, you
can modify that terminal's SESSION LIMIT. You can set SESSION LIMIT to
values of 0, 1, 2, 3,
4,
5, or 6.
If
you enter the value zero, the terminal user
cannot establish any sessions with the CONNECT command or the autoconnect
function. The user is limited to local mode. The default for SESSION LIMIT is
4.
DEDICATED SERVICE
The DEDICATED SERVICE feature is designed for terminal users who require
only one service for an extended period. The server connects the user directly
to the dedicated service when he or she presses any key on the terminal.
With a dedicated service, the terminal reacts like a terminal connected directly
to a service node, and local mode is not available for the terminal. The user
need have no knowledge of the MUXserver 100 or its local commands in order
to use the terminal.
To enable a dedicated service, VAX, for terminal 12, enter the following:
LOCAL>
LOCAL>
DEFINE TERMINAL 12 DEDICATED SERVICE VAX
LOGOUT TERMINAL 12
To disable the dedicated service, VAX, at ternlinal 12, type the following:
LOCAL>
LOCAL>
DEFINE
T~RMINAL
12 DEDICATED SERVICE NONE
LOGOUT TERMINAL 12
NOTE
You cannot use the SET TERMINAL command to establish a dedi-
cated service for a terminal if that terminal is currently logged in.
Use the DEFINE TERMINAL command or wait until the terminal
user logs out.
