Connecting Multiple Hosts
If more than one host is configured, a
Host Mode
option appears. Host Mode controls how
multiple hosts will be accessed. For the EDS-MD device, the Connect Mode supports up to 32
hosts. Hosts may be accessed sequentially or simultaneously:
Sequential
– Sequential host lists establish a prioritized list of tunnels. The host specified as
Host 1 will be attempted first. If that fails, it will proceed to Host 2, 3, etc, in the order they are
specified. When a connection drops, the cycle starts again with Host 1 and proceeds in order.
Establishing the host order is accomplished with host list promotion (see
). Sequential is the default Host Mode.
Simultaneous
– A tunnel will connect to all hosts accepting a connection. Simultaneous
connections occur at the same time to all listed hosts. The device can support a maximum of
64 total aggregate connections.
Block Serial
Set whether Block Serial is enabled for debugging purposes. Choices are:
Enabled
= If Enabled, incoming characters from the Serial Line will not be
forwarded to the network. Instead, they will be buffered and will eventually
flow off the Serial Line if hardware or software flow control is configured.
Disabled
= this is the default setting; incoming characters from the Serial Line
are sent on into the network. Any buffered characters are sent first.
Block Network
Set whether Block Network is enabled for debugging purposes. Choices are:
Enabled
= If Enabled, incoming characters from the network will not be
forwarded to the Serial Line. Instead, they will be buffered and will eventually
flow off the network side.
Disabled
= this is the default setting; incoming characters from the network
are sent on into the Serial Line. Any buffered characters are sent first.
