Telnet & SSH Functions
3.Direct Connect ON - PASSWORD: The Direct Connect feature is enabled at this port, but a password must be entered before a Direct Connection is established.
a)Upon login, the RSM will prompt for a username and password. If a valid username/password is entered, the RSM will return a message which confirms the connection and lists the name and number of the port (providing the user account allows access to the target port.)
b)If a valid username / password is not entered in 30 seconds or three attempts, the port will timeout and disconnect.
Notes:
•If you intend to use SSH to establish direct connections to the RSM, the "Direct Connect ON - PASSWORD option must be selected.
•If Supervisor commands are disabled at the Network Port, then accounts that permit Supervisor commands will not be able to initiate a Direct Connection.
•If Supervisor commands are enabled at the Network Port, then accounts with Supervisor access and accounts without Supervisor access will both be allowed to establish Direct Connections.
•If your user account does not permit access to the target port, the connection will be refused.
