Serial Port Configuration
4 - 5
•
Baud Rate
: Specify a baud rate of 300, 600, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600 (the
default), 19200, 38400, 57600, or 115200 baud.
Ex:
CHANGE SPEED 19200
•
Character Size
: The MSS can use 8 data bits (the default) or 7.
Ex:
CHANGE CHARSIZE 7
•
Stop Bits
: The MSS can use 1 stop bit (the default) or 2.
Ex:
CHANGE STOPBITS 2
•
Parity
: The MSS supports even and odd parity, as well as settings of
Mark, Space, and None (the default).
Ex:
CHANGE PARITY EVEN
•
Inactivity Logout
: The MSS can be configured to automatically log out
the serial port if it is idle for a specified period of time. This feature is
disabled by default. See Inactivity Timer.
Ex:
CHANGE INACTIVE LOGOUT ENABLED
•
Inactivity Timer
: When Inactivity Logout is enabled, the port will auto-
matically log out after an idle period of 1 to 120 minutes, depending
upon the specified timer value. The default is 30 minutes.
Ex:
CHANGE INACTIVE TIMER 2
•
Preferred Services
: If preferred services are configured, the MSS will
attempt to use those services for connections when no service names are
specified in Telnet (TCP), Rlogin, SPX, or LAT connection commands. A
preferred service can be defined for each protocol, or the None keyword
can be use to denote that there is no preferred service for that protocol.
No preferred services are enabled by default.
Ex:
CHANGE PREFERRED TCP 192.0.1.233
CHANGE PREFERRED SPX NONE
NOTE:
Both the Change Preferred and Change Dedicated commands can
take environment strings. For complete command syntax, refer to
the Commands chapter on CD-ROM.
•
Dedicated Service
: The MSS can be configured to only provide connec-
tions to a single dedicated service. When a dedicated service is config-
ured, users will be connected to the service immediately upon login,
and will be disconnected from both the service and the MSS upon
logout. They will never see the MSS Local> prompt.
