Getting Started
Using UNIX Aliases for Terminal Server Commands
The Model 3395 Terminal Server software provides several UNIX equivalents, or aliases, for Model 3395/3395A Terminal Server commands. If you work in a UNIX environment, you may want to use these aliases because they will be more familiar to you than the Model 3395/3395A commands. Instead of the terminal server HELP command, for example, you can enter the MAN command. Chapter 3 includes a description of the UNIX aliases for terminal server commands.
Logging Out of the Terminal Server Port
The terminal server LOGOUT command logs you out of the terminal server port. When you do this, the terminal server disconnects any sessions that are still active.
TS3395> logout
TS3395
The log out message includes your port number and the name of the terminal server, as well as the date and time you logged off.
If You Make a Mistake
Do not be concerned if you make a mistake, such as a typing error, when you enter a command. The terminal server displays an error message and often some information that helps you correct the command. In any case, you can reenter the command correctly, or recall and edit the command line with the editing characters described in Chapter 2.
Privilege Levels
Privilege levels determine which terminal server commands you can use. The network manager can set the privilege level at each port to one of three levels:
•Secure
•Nonprivileged
•Privileged
All the commands in this manual are available at Secure ports.
The two other higher privilege levels, Nonprivileged and Privileged, allow users to enter system management commands, gain access to other users' ports, and alter the parameters in the terminal server database. The Software Management Guide for the Model 3395/3395A Terminal Server describes the Nonprivileged and Privileged levels in more detail, and Commands Reference for the Model 3395/3395A Terminal Server describes all the commands available to users with these privilege levels.
