Tunnel – Connect Mode

Description

 

 

Settings (continued)

 

 

 

Host Mode

Select the host mode if you have more than one host configured:

 

 

 

Sequential

 

 

 

Simultaneous

 

 

 

Note: See Connecting Multiple Hosts on page 70 for more information.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Reconnect Timer

Enter the reconnect time in milliseconds. The device attempts to reconnect after

 

 

 

this amount of time after failing a connection or exiting an existing connection.

 

 

 

This behavior depends upon the Disconnect Mode.

 

 

 

Note:

 

 

 

When you configure Tunnel - Connect Mode, you can specify a number

 

 

 

of milliseconds to attempt to reconnect after a dropped connection has

 

 

 

occurred. The default is 1500 milliseconds.

 

 

 

The Reconnect Timer only applies if a Disconnect Mode is configured.

 

 

 

With a Disconnect Mode set, the device server maintains a connection

 

 

 

until the disconnect mode condition is met (at which time the device server

 

 

 

closes the connection). If the tunnel is dropped due to conditions beyond

 

 

 

the device server, the device server attempts to re-establish a failed

 

 

 

connection when the specified reconnect interval reaches its limit.

 

 

 

Any network-side disconnect is considered an error and a reconnect is

 

 

 

attempted without regard to the Connect Mode settings. Simultaneous

 

 

 

Connect Mode connections require some Disconnect Mode

 

 

 

configurations or the connections will never terminate. See Tunnel –

 

 

 

Disconnect Mode on page 71 for more information about the parameters.

 

 

 

If Disconnect Mode is disabled and the network connection is dropped,

 

 

 

then the re-establishment of a tunnel connection is governed by the

 

 

 

configured Connect Mode settings.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Flush Serial Data

Select whether to flush the serial line when a connection is made. Choices are:

 

 

 

Enabled = flush the serial line when a connection is made.

 

 

 

Disabled = do not flush the serial line. (default)

 

 

Block Serial

Select Enabled to block (not tunnel) serial data transmitted to the device. This

 

 

 

is a debugging tool that causes serial data sent to the device to be ignored.

 

 

Block Network

Select Enabled to block (not tunnel) network data transmitted to the device.

 

 

 

This is a debugging tool that causes network data sent to the device to be

 

 

 

ignored.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Email on Connect

Select whether the device sends an email when a connection is made. Select

 

 

 

None if you do not want to send an email. Otherwise, select the Email profile to

 

 

 

use.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Email on Disconnect

Select whether the device sends an email when a connection is closed. Select

 

 

 

None if you do not want to send an email. Otherwise, select the Email profile to

 

 

 

use.

 

5.Click Submit. The host is configured. A second host appears underneath the newly configured host.Repeat these steps to configure additional hosts as necessary. EDS supports configuration of up to sixteen hosts.
