Introduction to the Model 5390 Server
• ARA security
Access to an AppleTalk Remote Access Protocol (ARAP) connection
The Model 5390 server provides protection through the use of an administrative password that
controls access to the superuser CLI commands. This password can also protect access to the Model
5390 server through na. The security system provides audit trails that monitor users and their
activities. The Model 5390 server also provides the source code for the Access Control Protocol
(ACP) security system, and the flexibility to integrate Model 5390 security with existing security
for a network-wide system.
Port Servers and Rotaries
The port server enables the Model 5390 server to add resources to the network by allowing access
to devices attached to ports. Users and applications on the network can access these devices through
rlogin and telnet connections to the port server.
• The port server supports rotaries
A rotary is a set of ports grouped together so that users can address them—and the Model 5390
server can manage them—as one resource. You can assign names to rotaries. Using rotaries,
you can: assign multiple rotaries to one Model 5390 server with each rotary having its own
name; assign multiple ports on the Model 5390 server to one rotary; or assign rotaries on
different Model 5390 servers to one rotary name. Each rotary name can have its own Internet
address and can be addressed as a separate resource on the network.
• The port server supports camp-on
Using camp-on, if all requested ports are busy, the port server queues the user on a first-come,
first-served basis. The user can put the camp-on request into the background and resume another
job; the Model 5390 server signals when the port is free.
