/C
Connect
Establishes a bi-directional connection between two ports. For more information and command
line examples, please refer to Section 7.1. There are two different types of port connections:
·
Resident Connect:
If the /C command specifies one port name or number, your resident
port will be connected to the specified port.
·
Third Party Connect:
If the /C command specifies two port names or numbers, the unit
will connect the two ports indicated. A Third Party Connect command must be issued from
a third port with “Supervisor” command capability. "User" ports
cannot
initiate a Third
Party Connect.
Note:
• Ports with "User" command capability can only connect to ports that share the
same Port Password.
• Ports with “Supervisor” command capability are allowed to connect to all other
ports.
