Serial Port Profiles

Break Handling

Specifies how a break is interpreted.

 

Data Range:

 

z None—The IOLAN ignores the break key completely and it is not passed

 

through to the host.

 

z Local—The IOLAN deals with the break locally. If the user is in a

 

session, the break key has the same effect as a hot key.

 

z Remote—When the break key is pressed, the IOLAN translates this into a

 

telnet break signal which it sends to the host machine.

 

z Break Interrupt—On some systems such as SunOS, XENIX, and AIX, a

 

break received from the peripheral is not passed to the client properly. If

 

the client wishes to make the break act like an interrupt key (for example,

 

when the stty options -ignbrkand brkintr are set).

 

Default: None

Dial In

If the console port is remote and will be dialing in via modem or ISDN TA,

 

enable this parameter.

 

Default: Disabled

Dial Out

If you want the modem to dial a number when the serial port is started, enable

 

this parameter.

 

Default: Disabled

Dial Timeout

The number of seconds the IOLAN will wait to establish a connection to a

 

remote modem.

 

Range: 1-99

 

Default: 45 seconds

Dial Retry

The number of times the IOLAN will attempt to re-establish a connection with

 

a remote modem.

 

Range: 0-99

 

Default: 2

Modem

The name of the predefined modem that is used on this line.

Phone

The phone number to use when Dial Out is enabled.
