|
|
| 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 |
|
|
| connection when the specified reconnect interval reaches its limit. |
|
|
| Any |
|
|
| 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 |
|
|
| configured Connect Mode settings. |

|
|
| 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. |
