TERMINAL SERVERS
3. Defining the Maximum Number of Concurrent Sessions
Statement 3 limits the number of concurrent sessions permitted from the
port, in this example to three. It allows the user to open up to three sessions,
and to switch back and forth among them. The default is four sessions, but
users on DEDICATED ports are automatically set to a limit of one.
4. Defining an Inactivity Log-out Period
Statement 4 enables the inactivity logout facility. This automatically logs
off the user after a set period of idle time (set by the DEFINE SERVER
INACTIVITY TIMER command).
5. Defining the Type of Terminal Connected to the Port
Statement 5 defines the type of terminal connected to the port. This
information (vt220 in the example, which stands for the DEC VT220 display
terminal) is used during the opening stage of the Telnet session to advise the
host as to the type of terminal in use. Most UNIX applications will use this
information in order to determine the appropriate data stream for
communication with the terminal. The Terminal Server itself does not use
this information when communicating with the attached device nor does it
verify the validity of the name entered so any character string may be used.
This setting is optional. The default is ANSI.
Other configuration commands that may apply here are:
• DEFINE PORT BREAK LOCAL/DISABLED/REMOTE—this defines the
handling of a BREAK signal sent from the terminal to the Terminal
Server. There are three possibilities:
a. LOCAL specifies that the BREAK signal will be used to switch the user to
local mode. This is the default definition.
b. DISABLED specifies that the BREAK signal is to be ignored.
c. REMOTE causes the BREAK signal to be translated into a special Telnet
command that is sent to the host (TELNET BREAK) without affecting the
Terminal Server.
