48 Terminal Server User Guide
Sessions
Sessions are defined for users who are coming in through a serial device going to a host on the
LAN.
Users who have successfully logged into the Terminal Server (
User Service
set to
DSprompt
)
can start up to four login sessions on LAN hosts. These users start sessions through the Menu
option
Sessions .
Multiple sessions can be run simultaneously on the same host or on different hosts. Users can
switch between different sessions and also between sessions and the Terminal Server using
hotkey commands.
Users with Admin or Normal privileges can define new sessions and connect through them, even
configure them to start automatically on login to the Terminal Server.
Restricted
and
Menu
users
can only start sessions predefined for them by the Admin user.
You can configure the User access rights to the port, such as Read/Write (RW) or Read Input
(RI).
Users From LAN to Terminal Server to Serial Device
Easy Port Access Menu
The Easy Port Access Menu is displayed when a
Restricted
or
Menu
level user logs into the box
from the Ethernet side (
Line Service
set to
Rev Telnet
) to access a serial device. The Easy Port
Access Menu displays the line number, line name, line protocol, and a logout option. You can
only access the line if it has the same connection protocol as the one you used to log into the
Terminal Server. So, if you used SSH to log into the Terminal Server and the
Line Service
is set
for
Rev Telnet
, you will not be able to access the serial device connected to that line.
Configuring Network Options
Hosts
This is probably one of the first Terminal Server options you want to configure, since so many
other configuration options require a preconfigured host. You can use any host name you want,
since the host name is used only by the Terminal Server. You can configure up to 20 hosts using
IPv4 or IPv6 internet addresses.
Gateways
Gateways are hosts that connect Local Area Networks (LANs) together. If you want to access a
host that isn’t on your local network, you will be connected via a gateway. Gateways route data
via other gateways until the destination local network is reached. There are three types of
gateways:
z
Default —A gateway that provides general access beyond your local network.
z Host —A gateway reserved for accessing a specific host external to your local network.
z
Network —A gateway reserved for accessing a specific network external to your local
network.
You can specify up to twenty gateways.
Syslog
The system log is sent to the specified host. You can configure a primary and secondary host for
the syslog information and specify the level for which you want syslog information sent.
