TCP Configuration

Assuming the MSS serial port parameters have been configured properly, the device servers are configured as follows for MSS-VIA and MSS4:

MSS_A	Local>> CHANGE PORT 1 DEDICATED TCP 192.168.0.10:3001T
	Local>> CHANGE PORT 1 AUTOSTART ENABLED
MSS_B	Local>> CHANGE PORT 1 ACCESS REMOTE
	Local>> CHANGE PORT 1 DEDICATED NONE
	Local>> CHANGE PORT 1 AUTOSTART DISABLED
Configuration for MSS100 is as follows:
MSS_A	Local>> CHANGE DEDICATED TCP 192.168.0.10:3001T
	Local>> AUTOSTART ENABLED
MSS_B	Local>> CHANGE ACCESS REMOTE
	Local>> CHANGE DEDICATED NONE

Local>> CHANGE AUTOSTART DISABLED

Note: If the device servers are on different IP subnets, the default gateway on each unit will have to be configured with the Change Server Gateway command.

The above commands create a raw (8-bit clean) TCP connection between the serial ports of the two servers once the units have been power-cycled. The commands for MSS_A ensure that it will automatically connect to MSS_B each time it is booted. The commands for MSS_B ensure that it is always available to accept connections from MSS_A.

UDP Configuration

When the UDP protocol is used, there is no connection; each MSS must be told explicitly which hosts it is allowed to accept packets from. Each MSS would have to be configured to both send packets to and accept packets from the other MSS.

Configuration for MSS-VIA and MSS4 is as follows:

MSS_A Local>> CHANGE PORT 1 DEDICATED TCP 192.168.0.10:4096U Local>> CHANGE PORT 1 AUTOSTART ENABLED

Local>> CHANGE PORT 1 ACCESS DYNAMIC

MSS_B Local>> CHANGE PORT 1 DEDICATED TCP 192.168.0.13:4096U Local>> CHANGE PORT 1 AUTOSTART ENABLED

Local>> CHANGE PORT 1 ACCESS DYNAMIC

Configuration for MSS100 is as follows:

MSS_A Local>> CHANGE DEDICATED TCP 192.168.0.10:4096U

Local>> CHANGE AUTOSTART ENABLED

Local>> CHANGE ACCESS DYNAMIC

MSS_B Local>> CHANGE DEDICATED TCP 192.168.0.13:4096U

Local>> CHANGE AUTOSTART ENABLED

Local>> CHANGE ACCESS DYNAMIC
