Configuring Individual Telnet Client Session Characteristics

The following shows how to enable FLOW CONTROL from port 5 to the device:

Local> CHANGE PORT 5 TELNET CLIENT OUTPUT FLOW CONTROL ENABLED

Specifying MESSAGE VERIFICATION

The MESSAGE VERIFICATION characteristic controls the display of session information when an existing Telnet client session is started, stopped, or resumed. With VERIFICATION enabled (factory-set default), the access server displays the session number and the Internet address. With VERIFICATION disabled, no session information is displayed when a session is started, stopped, or resumed. This command does not affect existing sessions. To affect existing sessions, use the SET SESSION TELNET CLIENT MESSAGE VERIFICATION command.

Example: Configuring MESSAGE VERIFICATION

The following example shows how to disable VERIFICATION on port 5:

Local> CHANGE PORT 5 TELNET CLIENT MESSAGE VERIFICATION DISABLED

Specifying the SWITCH CHARACTER

The SWITCH CHARACTER characteristic determines how the access server handles SWITCH CHARACTERs. By default, if any SWITCH CHARACTER is defined on the port, it is recognized and intercepted by the access server during each session.

However, any user can change or disable the access server from recognizing these SWITCH CHARACTERs for a specific Telnet session. (The sections Specifying Keys to Switch Between Sessions, Defining the Break Key, and Specifying a Key to Switch to Local Mode provide the procedures to define the SWITCH CHARACTERs.)
