Command Reference

Change Forward Switch

2.19 Change Forward Switch

character

CHANGE PORT PortList FORWARD SWITCH

NONE

Defines a key that will switch the user to the next session without entering local mode. In local mode, the key functions as if the Forward command was entered. Any key can be specified unless it conflicts with MSS line editing or the Break or Forward keys. The key you specify will be stripped from the data stream, so while it won’t interfere with remote operating systems, you will lose any functionality that key would have on local programs.

Restrictions

Requires privileged user status.

Parameters

Port

 

MSS4 only. Specifies a particular port or group of ports.

Note:

In the absence of the PortList parameter, the configuration will affect the MSS4’s

 

current port only.

 

PortList

 

Specify a particular port or group of ports. Port numbers are specified with

 

integers between 1 and 4, and should be separated with commas (for lists) or

 

dashes (for ranges).

 

character

 

Type a character to serve as the switch key. To specify a control character, use

 

escaped hex (\xx). For example, Ctrl-B (ASCII character 0x02) would be

 

specified as \02.

 

None

 

Clears the previously-defined Forward Switch key.

Defaults

No switch

2.20 Change Gateway

CHANGE SERVER SECONDARY GATEWAY IPaddress

Specifies the host that is to be used as a TCP/IP gateway between networks. If a connection to a machine on a different network is attempted, messages will be directed to the gateway for forwarding. The MSS will try to learn gateways automatically if none have been configured.

Restrictions

Requires privileged user status.

Errors

If a gateway is not defined, an error will be returned.
