to

From the drop-down list, select a destination for the connection: a device port connected

 

 

to a serial device, a device port connected to a modem, or an outbound network

 

 

connection (Device Port, Modem on Device Port, Telnet, SSH, TCP Port, or UDP

 

 

Port).

 

 

Note: To see the current settings for a selected device port, click the Settings link.

 

 

 

 

Hostname

The host name or IP Address of the destination. This entry is required if the to field is set

 

 

to Telnet out, SSH out, TCP port, or UDP port.

 

 

 

 

Port

If the to field is set to Device Port or Modem on Device Port, enter the number of the

 

 

device port. For all other options, this is the TCP/UDP port number, which is optional for

 

 

Telnet out and SSH out, but required for TCP Port and UDP Port.

 

 

Note: If you select Device Port, it must not have command line interface logins

 

 

enabled or be running a loopback test. To view the device port's settings, click the

 

 

Settings link to the right of the port number.

 

 

 

 

SSH Out

Select one of the following optional flags to use for the SSH connection.

 

Options

User: Login ID to use for authenticating on the remote host.

 

 

Version: Version of SSH. Select 1 or 2.

 

 

Command: Enter a specific command on the remote host (for example, reboot).

 

 

 

 

Trigger

Select the condition that will trigger a connection. Options include:

 

 

Connect now: Connects immediately, or if you reboot the SLC 8000 advanced

 

 

console manager, immediately on reboot.

 

 

Connect at date/time: Connects at a specified date and time. Use the drop-down

 

 

lists to complete the date and time. Upon rebooting, the SLC unit reestablishes the

 

 

connection if the date/time has passed.

 

 

Auto-connect on characters transferring: Select the arrow indicating the direction

 

 

of the data transfer and either the minimum number of characters or a specific

 

 

character sequence that will trigger the connection.

 

 

You can select the direction of the data transfer only if Data Flow is bidirectional. Upon

 

 

rebooting, the SLC 8000 advanced console manager does not reestablish the

 

 

connection until the specified data has passed through one of the endpoints of the

 

 

connection.
