Serial Port Profiles

User Service Settings

Login Settings

These settings apply to users who are accessing the network from a terminal connected to the IOLAN’s serial port. The Telnet settings take effect when the connection method is defined in the user’s profile.

Configure the following parameters:

Limit Connection

Makes the serial port dedicated to the specified user. The user won’t need to

to User

enter their login name - just their password.

Initial Mode

Specifies the initial interface a user navigates when logging into the serial port.

 

Data Options: Menu, Command Line

 

Default: Command Line

Terminal Pages

The number of video pages the terminal supports.

 

Range: 1-7

 

Default: 5 pages

Telnet Settings

The Telnet settings apply when the User Service is set to Telnet or the Terminal profile specifies a Telnet connection to a host.

Configure the following parameters:

Terminal Type Type of terminal attached to this serial port; for example, ANSI or WYSE60.

Enable Local Echo 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 be used only when Enable Line Mode is enabled.

Default: Disabled
