4. Configuration Options

Table 4-21. Telnet and FTP Session Options (2 of 3)

Session Access Level

Possible Settings: Level-1, Level-2, Level-3

Default Setting: Level-1

Specifies the highest security level allowed when accessing the menu-driven user interface via a Telnet session. If a login is required for the session, the effective access level is also determined by the user’s access level. When a login is not required, the effective access level is determined by this option. This option does not affect the

TS Access Management Link.

NOTE: The effective access level is always the lowest level assigned to either the session or the user. For example, if the assigned Session Access Level is Level-2, but the User Access Level is Level-3, then only Level-3 access is allowed for the session.

Level-1– Allows Telnet access to view system information, change configuration options, and run tests. This is the highest access level allowed.

CAUTION: Before changing the session access level to Level-2 or 3, make sure that the COM port’s Port Access Level is set to Level-1 and that at least one Login ID is set to Level-1. If levels are not set properly, access will be lost until the unit is reset to factory defaults. A reset is required if the Communication Port’s Port Use option is set to Net Link (see Table 4-25, Communication Port Options).

Level-2– Allows Telnet access to view system information and run tests only; cannot change configuration options.

Level-3– Allows Telnet access to view system information only; cannot change configuration options or run tests.

Inactivity Timeout

Possible Settings: Enable, Disable

Default Setting: Enable

Determines whether a Telnet session is disconnected after a specified period of keyboard inactivity.

Enable – Terminates the session after the Disconnect Time expires.

Disable – Does not terminate Telnet session during inactivity.

Disconnect Time (Minutes)

Possible Settings: 1 – 60

Default Setting: 10

Sets the amount of keyboard inactive time allowed before a user session is disconnected.

Display Conditions – This option does not appear when Inactivity Timeout is disabled.

1 – 60 – Up to an hour can be set in minutes as the disconnect time.

FTP Session

Possible Settings: Enable, Disable

Default Setting: Enable

Determines whether the system responds as a server when an FTP client on an interconnected IP network requests an FTP session. This option must be enabled when downloading files. This option affects the TS Access Management Link.

Enable – Allows an FTP session between the system and an FTP client.

Disable – Does not allow FTP sessions.
