Terminal Access
The remote signon is available to a terminal attached through a dedicated local
supervisory port, a local floating supervisory port (a designated data channel that
is enabled for supervisory access), or any terminal in the network that is connected
to the supervisor facility. Only one terminal can be logged on as supervisor at a
time.
To access
REMOTE SIGNON
from the Main Menu:
TYPE:
16
PRESS:
RETURN
The terminal displays the system menu from the remote 3028
Turbo (CTS 2031
Turbo)
multiplexer or a prompt for the password to be entered, if one is pro-
grammed. Enter the password.
PRESS:
RETURN
The menu appears and you are logged on and may continue to change or inquire
about the parameters.
When signed on to a remote multiplexer as supervisor, all menus and displays are
generated by the remote multiplexer. To clarify which node one is talking to,
especially if jumping between remote and local supervisor modes, it is a good idea
to modify the system banner to indicate the identity of the node producing the
menu. This can be done via the
SET SYSTEM BANNER
command.
Note
When a user is logged on to a remote channel
as supervisor, the attached device at the
remote end is effectively disabled until signoff.
