Service

Instructs the unit to start a user service by selecting one from the following list (once

 

the user is authenticated successfully):

 

csprompt: a login on the unit (the default setting). Use this service for you as the

 

system administrator, or for users who wish to run a single or multiple sessions on

 

Terminal Server connections; these sessions are configured within the unit.

 

Telnet: a Telnet service provided by the unit. Use this service when you/a user is

 

connected directly to a port via a serial line (i.e. not connected into one of the

 

network ports). When the telnet service starts, the user will be authenticated by the

 

host. Now go to the IP Host and TCP Port No fields.

 

Rlogin: an Rlogin service provided by the unit. Use this service when you are is

 

connected directly to a port via a serial line (i.e. not connected into one of the

 

network ports). When the rlogin service starts, the user will be authenticated by the

 

host. Now go to the IP Host field.

 

TCP clear: use for devices which require a login, i.e. authentication. Such devices

 

could be a bar code reader or smart card. ‘TCP clear’ provides a channel on which 8-

 

bit data is passed, without interpretation, to a host. It has the same meaning as the

 

TCP Clear login service specified in the RADIUS Authentication rfc.

 

SLIP: The SLIP service will be started using the SLIP parameters set for that line;

 

see Configuring SLIP on page 78. There will be no further login prompt (unless

 

callback is operating). The SLIP line settings will be taken from the settings

 

configured for that line.

Tip

When specifying the ‘SLIP’ option, we recommend you set the ‘line service’ on that

 

particular line to ‘cslogin’; see Setting up the line on page 75.

 

PPP: The PPP service will be started using the PPP parameters set for that line; see

 

Configuring PPP on page 82. There will be no further login prompt (unless callback is

 

operating). The PPP line settings will be taken from the settings configured for that

 

line.

Tip

When specifying the ‘PPP’ option, we recommend you set the ‘line service’ on that

 

particular port to ‘cslogin’; see Setting up the line on page 75.

Note

Note also that some types of user service have the same name as line service types,

 

e.g. ‘user service: SLIP’ and ‘line service:SLIP’. User ‘service’ is explained in

 

Configuring a user account on page 100.
