Configuring Users

Set Default User

Description Configures the Default User. When adding a new user, the profile of the default user will be used to assign the values of the various parameters of the new user. For example if you set the service parameter of the default user to ppp, when a new user is added, their service parameter will be set to ppp.

Options callback

When On, enter a phone number for the IOLAN to call the user back (the Callback parameter is unrelated to the Line Dial parameter).

Note: the IOLAN will allow callback only when a user is authenticated. If the protocol over the link does not provide authentication, there will be no callback. Therefore, when the Line Service is set to PPP, you must use either PAP or CHAP, because these protocols provide authentication. The default is Off.

The IOLAN supports another type of callback, Roaming Callback, which is configurable when the Line Service is set to PPP.

framed-compression

Used for User Service PPP or SLIP, determines whether Van Jacobsen Compression is used on the link. VJ compression is a means of reducing the standard TCP/IP header from 40 octets to approximately 5 octets. This gives a significant performance improvement, particularly when interactive applications are being used. For example, when the user is typing, a single character can be passed over the link with a packet as small as 5 octets as opposed to 40 octets when no JV compression is used. VJ Compression has little effect on other types of links, such as ftp, where the packets are much larger. The Framed Compression value will be used in preference to the VJ Compression value set for a Line. The default is Off.

framed-ip

Used for User Service PPP or SLIP, sets the IP address of the remote user. Enter the address in dot decimal notation as follows:

z255.255.255.254 (default)—The IOLAN will use the Remote IP Address set in the PPP settings for the line.

z255.255.255.255—When the User Service is PPP, the IOLAN will allow the remote machine to specify its IP address (overriding the Remote IP Address configured in the line, PPP settings). When the User Service is SLIP, the IOLAN will use the Remote IP Address set for the line (no negotiation).

zn.n.n.n—(where n is a number) Enter the IP address of your choice. This IP address will then be used in preference to the Remote IP Address set for a line.

framed-interface-id

Used for User Service PPP, sets the IPv6 address of the remote user.

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.
