Terminal-Server Administrative Tasks
You can enable and configure the terminal-server command-line interface from a MAX unit’s
VT100 interface. You access the terminal-server command-line interface through the DO
command menu, the same interface that you use to specify administrative permissions,
described in “Activating administrative permissions” on page 2-1. Use the terminal-server
command-line interface to test the MAX unit, initiate remote management sessions, disconnect
user Telnet connections, administer passwords, and display information about the unit’s
configuration and performance.
For introductory information about navigation and MAX user interfaces, including the
terminal-server command-line interface, see the Hardware Installation and Basic
Configuration Guide for your MAX unit.
Enabling and configuring the interface
The TSEnabled parameter, in the TServ Options profile, enables or disables terminal services.
Terminal services must be enabled to support incoming calls from analog modems or V.120
terminal adapters. If you are unable to access the terminal-server command-line interface, you
must verify that the TSEnabled parameter is set to
Yes
. For example:
