Configuring Lines
58 IOLAN Device Server User’s Guide, Version 1.0
Telnet Settings
When the Line Service is set to Direct or Silent Telnet, data is sent through the connection in a telnet
session. This telnet session is initiated from the Device Server to the configured host.
Configure the following parameters:
Terminal Type
Host Name
Port
Local Echo
Line Mode
Map CR to CRLF
Interrupt
Quit
EOF
Erase
Echo
Escape
Type of terminal attached to this line; for example, ANSI or WYSE60.
The name of the target host.
The port number the target host is listening on for incoming connections.
Toggles between local echo of entered characters and suppressing local echo.
Local echo is used for normal processing, while suppressing the echo is
convenient for entering text that should not be displayed on the screen, such as
passwords. This parameter can only be used when Line Mode is On. Default is
Off.
When On, keyboard input is not sent to the remote host until Enter is pressed,
otherwise input is sent every time a key is pressed. Default is Off.
Maps carriage returns (CR) to carriage return line feed (CRLF). The default
value is Off.
Defines the interrupt character. Typing the interrupt character interrupts the
current process. This value is in hexadecimal with a default value of 3 (ASCII
value ^C).
Defines the quit character. Typing the quit character closes and exits the current
telnet session. This value is in hexadecimal with a default value of 1c (ASCII
value FS).
Defines the end-of-file character. When Line Mode is On, entering the eof
character as the first character on a line sends the character to the remote host.
This value is in hexadecimal with a default value of 4 (ASCII value ^D).
Defines the erase character. When Line Mode is Off, typing the erase character
erases one character. This value is in hexadecimal with a default value of 8
(ASCII value ^H).
Defines the echo character. When Line Mode is On, typing the echo character
echoes the text locally and sends only completed lines to the host. This value is
in hexadecimal with a default value of 5 (ASCII value ^E).
Defines the escape character. Returns you to the command line mode. This
value is in hexadecimal with a default value of 1d (ASCII value GS).
