Configuration

Network Services:

•Direct Connect: Direct Connect allows users to access the RSM and automatically create a connection between the Network Port and a specific RS232 port by including the appropriate Telnet port number in the connect command (e.g. Port 5 = 2105). For more information, please refer to Section 8.3. As described below, the Direct Connect feature offers three options. (Default = Off.)

◆Off: Telnet users will not be able to employ the Direct Connect feature to connect to this port.

◆On - No Password: Telnet users will be able to employ the Direct Connect feature to connect to this port without entering a password.

◆On - Password: Telnet and SSH users will be able to use Direct Connect to connect to this port, but will be required to enter a password before the connection is established.

Note: If "On - Password" is selected, and Supervisor commands are disabled at the Network Port, then only accounts that do not permit Supervisor commands will be allowed to establish a direct connection via the Network Port. If Supervisor commands are disabled at a given port, then that port will not allow access by accounts that permit Supervisor commands.

When the Port Parameters menu is accessed via the Text Interface, the menu also lists both Direct Connect port numbers for this port (port numbers are not listed in the Web Browser Interface.)

◆Telnet Port: The Telnet port number employed to create a Direct Connection to this port using standard Telnet protocol.

◆SSH Port: When Direct Connect (Item 13) is set at "On - Password", this line will display the Telnet port number used to create a Direct Connection to this port using SSH protocol. For more information, please refer to Section 8.3.

◆Raw Port: The Telnet port number that is used to create a Direct Connection to this port using Raw Socket protocol.

•Syslog: The Syslog feature is used to create records of each buffer event. As event records are created, they are sent to a Syslog Daemon, at an IP address defined via the Network Parameters menu. For more information, please refer to Section 9. The Syslog feature offers three possible settings. (Default = Off)

◆Off: Syslog disabled. (Default)

◆On - Not Connected: Messages will only be generated when a user is not connected to a buffer port (either by /C or direct connect.) This prevents information captured from the attached device from being put into Syslog messages while a user is connected to a buffer port.

◆On - Always: All captured information will be sent out via Syslog message; whether a user is connected or not.

Notes:

•Syslog is only available at Buffer Mode Ports.

•This option is not available to RS232 Ports 1 and 2, because Ports 1 and 2 cannot be configured as Buffer Mode Ports.
