Mode

Select the method to be used to start a connection to a remote host

 

 

or device. Choices are:

 

 

Disabled = an outgoing connection is never started. (default)

 

 

Enabled = a connection is attempted until one is made. If the

 

 

connection gets disconnected, the EDS retries until a connection is

 

 

made.

 

 

Any Character = a connection is started when any character is read

 

 

on the serial line.

 

 

Modem Control Asserted = a connection is attempted as long as the

 

 

Modem Control pin (DSR) is asserted until a connection is made.

 

 

Start Character = a connection is attempted when the start character

 

 

for the selected tunnel is read on the serial line.

 

 

Modem Emulation = a connection is started when triggered by

 

 

modem emulation AT commands.

 

 

 

 

 

Remote Address

Enter the address of the remote host to which the selected tunnel will

 

 

connect. Default is <none>.

 

 

 

 

 

Remote Port

Enter the number of the remote port to which the selected tunnel will

 

 

connect. Default is <none>.

 

 

 

 

 

Local Port

Enter the number of the local port that will participate in this tunnel.

 

 

Default is Port 1 = 10001, Port 2 = 10002, Port 3 = 10002, and Port 4

 

 

= 10004, and so forth.

 

 

 

 

 

Protocol

Select the protocol to use on the connection. Choices are:

TCP/AES = use for secure tunneling by means of TCP between two

 

 

EDS devices or other devices that support AES.

 

 

UDP/AES = use for secure tunneling by means of UDP between two

 

 

EDS devices or other devices that support AES.

 

 

 

 

 

Reconnect Timer

Enter the maximum number of milliseconds to wait before trying to

 

 

reconnect to the remote host after a previous attempt failed or the

 

 

connection was closed. Default is 15000 milliseconds.

 

 

 

 

 

Flush Serial Data

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

 

 

Choices are:
