Message of the Day (MOTD) Tab Field Descriptions

You must have a TFTP server running on any host that you are uploading or downloading files

to/from when using TFTP. When you specify the file path, the path must be relative to the default

path set in your TFTP server software. You can download a MOTD file to the IOLAN in the

DeviceManager by selecting Tools , Advanced, Custom Files and then selecting the Download

Other File option and browse to the MOTD file. In WebManager, select Administration, Custom

Files and select the Other File option and browse to the MOTD file. After the MOTD is downloaded

to the IOLAN, you must specify the MOTD file name in the Filename field to access it as the

message of the day (no TFTP Host parameter is required when the file is internal).

Configure the following parameters:

TFTP Tab Field Descriptions

You must have a TFTP server running on any host that you are uploading or downloading files

to/from.

Configure the following parameters:

TFTP Host The host that the IOLAN will be getting the Message of the Day file from.

Filename The path and file name, relative to the default path of your TFTP server

software, of the file that contains a string that is displayed when a user connects

to the IOLAN. The IOLAN will look for the file internally (it must already be

downloaded), if only the file is specified (no host) or the file cannot be found

on the specified host.

Note: TFTP file transfers send via UDP packets. When the packet delivery is interrupted for any

reason and a timeout occurs, that packet is resent if the retry count allows it. Therefore, if a

very large file is being transferred and is interrupted, the entire file is not resent, just the part

of the file that was not received.

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

host when no response is received. A value of 0 (zero) means that the IOLAN

will not attempt a retry should TFTP fail.

Range: 0-5

Default: 5

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

receipt of TFTP packets before retrying a TFTP transfer.

Range: 3-10

Default: 3 seconds
