Configuration Parameters
login_timeout
This asynchronous port parameter enables a login timer when the VMS command interface is
configured (that is, when cli_interface is set to
vci
). A Y enables this parameter, an N disables it.
The default is N.
long
_break
This asynchronous port parameter enables the Model 5390 server to return a user to the CLI prompt
after receiving a break signal of more than two seconds. When disabled, the Model 5390 server
passes the break to the local application. A Y enables this parameter, an N disables it. The default is Y.
loose_source_route
This Model 5390 parameter controls the Loose Source Routing protocol which defines a sequence
of IP addresses that a datagram must follow. A Y enables this parameter, an N disables it. The default
is Y.
When enabled, the Model 5390 server forwards all IP packets that have the Loose Source Routing
and Record option set. The Model 5390 server forwards all IP packets that have the Strict Source
Routing and Record option set only if the next routing address is directly reachable by the Model
5390 server. Otherwise, the Model 5390 server drops these packets and sends an ICMP type
Destination Unreachable message with a code of Source Route Failed.
When disabled, the Model 5390 server will not forward any IP packets that have the Strict Source
Routing and Record or Loose Source Routing and Record options set. The Model 5390 server accepts
these packets only if the Model 5390 server itself is the ultimate destination. If the packets are not
addressed to the Model 5390 server, they are dropped and the Model 5390 server sends an ICMP
type Destination Unreachable message with a code of Source Route Failed to the originator.
map
This T1 parameter controls the mapping of the modems to the T1 Drop and Insert Interface (T1DII)
and the T1 Network Interface (T1NI) DS0 channels. The modems can be mapped to any unoccupied
NOTE:
Loose source routing can pose a security risk if you use filters
on your network router. If you are concerned with security, set this
parameter to N.
