4.5.6 Remote IP Address
Selecting Autostart (automatic connection) in Connect Mode makes a connection to this
IP address on the network. This is the destination IP address used with an outgoing
connection.
4.5.7 Remote Port
The remote TCP port number must be set to use automatic connections. This parameter
defines the port number on the target host to which a connection is attempted.
Note:
To connect an ASCII terminal to a host using the
TCP2RS
for login
purposes, use the remote port number 23 (Internet standard port
number for Telnet services).
