Server Commands

session-escape-string

A configurable string that allows access to a port to view the multisession screen options, allowing the various options while accessing the particular port on the IOLAN. You can specify control (unprintable) codes by putting the decimal value in angle brackets < > (for example, ESC-bis <027>b). The default value is Ctrl-z s (<026>s in decimal).

 

retry

 

The number of times the IOLAN will retry to transmit a TPFT packet to/from a host

 

when no response is received. Enter a value between 0 and 5. The default is 5. A value

 

of 0 (zero) means that the IOLAN will not attempt a retry should TFTP fail.

 

timeout

 

The time, in seconds, that the IOLAN will wait for a successful transmit or receipt of

 

TFTP packets before retrying a TFTP transfer. Enter a value between 3 and 10. The

 

default is 3 seconds.

 

ssl-passphrase

 

This is the SSL/TLS passphrase used to generate an encrypted RSA/DSA private key.

 

This private key and passphrase are required for both HTTPS and SSL/TLS

 

connections, unless an unencrpyted private key was generated, then the SSL passphrase

 

is not required. Make sure that you download the SSL private key and certificate if you

 

are using the secure HTTP option (HTTPS) or SSL/TLS. If both RSA and DSA private

 

keys are downloaded to the IOLAN, they need to be generated using the same SSL

 

passphrase for both to work.

Set SSL Server

 

Description

Sets the default SSL/TLS parameters for the server.

User Level

Admin

Syntax

Options

version

Specify whether you want to use:

zAny—The IOLAN will try a TLSv1 connection first. If that fails, it will try an SSLv3 connection. If that fails, it will try an SSLv2 connection.

zTLSv1—The connection will use only TLSv1.

zSSLv3—The connection will use only SSLv3.

The default is Any.

type

Specify whether the IOLAN will act as an SSL/TLS client or server. The default is

Client. verify-peer

Enable this option when you want the Validation Criteria to match the Peer Certificate for authentication to pass. If you enable this option, you need to download an SSL/TLS certificate authority (CA) list file to the IOLAN.

CSS specifications

Perle Systems, a well-established provider of networking and IoT solutions, offers the innovative Perle CSS (ClearSky Services) platform, designed to facilitate efficient and secure device management. This powerful solution aims to address the challenges of managing a diverse range of devices connected to the Internet, particularly in enterprise, industrial, and M2M (Machine-to-Machine) environments.

One of the main features of the Perle CSS is its robust device management capabilities. Administrators can remotely monitor, configure, and control devices in real-time. This means that troubleshooting can be conducted without the need for physical access, significantly reducing operational downtime. Additionally, the platform supports bulk provisioning, allowing organizations to onboard multiple devices simultaneously, which streamlines the deployment process.

Another notable feature is its security architecture. Perle Systems has integrated advanced security protocols to ensure the integrity and confidentiality of data transmitted between devices. The use of virtual private networks (VPNs), secure socket layer (SSL) encryption, and secure shell (SSH) protocols ensures that sensitive information remains protected from unauthorized access while in transit.

The Perle CSS also stands out for its compatibility with various communication protocols, including MQTT, RESTful APIs, and others. This interoperability allows organizations to integrate the CSS platform seamlessly with their existing systems, facilitating efficient data exchange and interoperability between different devices and applications.

Moreover, Perle CSS adopts a cloud-based architecture, which provides users with the flexibility to access device information from any location. This cloud integration enhances scalability, allowing businesses to expand their network capabilities without the need for extensive infrastructure investments.

The platform's user-friendly interface simplifies navigation, allowing users to manage devices effectively without requiring extensive technical expertise. With customizable dashboards and real-time analytics, administrators can gain valuable insights into device performance, network status, and usage patterns.

In summary, Perle Systems' CSS offers a comprehensive solution for managing connected devices in a secure and efficient manner. Its key features, including robust device management, advanced security, protocol compatibility, and a cloud-based architecture make it an ideal choice for enterprises looking to enhance their IoT capabilities and streamline operations in an increasingly connected world.
