Configuring Users

line-access

Specifies the user access rights to each IOLAN device line. Options are:

zRead/Write—Users are given read and write access to the line.

zRead In—Users are given access to read only outbound data, data that is going from the IOLAN to the device.

The onoff option is only for 1-port models. You can disable line access in 2-port + models by specifying 0 (zero).

phone-number

The phone number the IOLAN will dial to callback the user (you must have set

Callback to On). Enter the number without spaces.

port

When the User Service is Telnet, this is the target port number. The default value will change based on the type of Service selected; the most common known port numbers are used as the default values.

service

The type of service that the user will use.

sess-timer

The amount of time, in seconds, that the Session Timer will run. Use this timer to forcibly close a user’s session (connection). When the Session Timer expires, the IOLAN will end the connection. The default value is 0 (zero), meaning that the session timer will not expire (the session is open permanently, or until the user logs out). The maximum value is 4294967 seconds. The User Session Timer will override the Line Session Timer, with the exception of reverse Telnet sessions.

Set User

Description Sets users settings. Normal-level users can configure only their own settings. Admin-level users can configure any users settings, including their own (with the exception of their User Level, which must stay at Admin).

User Level Normal, Admin

Syntax set user . [hotkey-prefix <00-7f>] [language englishcustomlang] [password]

Admin set user .<username>*

[host-ip None<ip_address><config_host>] [hotkey-prefix <00-7f>] [idle-timer <0-4294967>] [language englishcustomlang]

[level adminnormalrestrictedmenu] [password] [line-access readinreadwrite [onoff]<line(s)> [0]] [service dsprompttelnettcp-clear] [sess-timer <0-4294967>] [port tcp-cleartelnet <tcp_port>]

Options host-ip

For outbound User Services such as Telnet, this is the target host name or IP address. If no IP address is specified, the Host IP value in the Default User configuration will be used. The default is 0.0.0.0. or None.

This capability is invaluable for applications requiring real-time data transmission, such as remote monitoring and automated control systems. The DS1 model, on the other hand, is designed for single-port use, making it an ideal solution for smaller-scale operations or specific single-device connections.

Both the TS2 and DS1 incorporate advanced features such as configuration through a web interface, which simplifies setup and management. Users can easily access device settings and monitor performance metrics remotely, enhancing operational efficiency. These devices also support various network protocols such as TCP/IP, UDP, and ICMP, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of network architectures.

In terms of security, Perle Systems prioritize user data protection. The TS2 and DS1 offer features including SSL encryption and SSH protection, providing an added layer of security for sensitive information transmitted over the network. This is particularly important for industries where data integrity and security are paramount, such as healthcare and finance.

Additionally, the rugged design of both devices ensures reliable performance even in harsh environments. With extended temperature ratings and robust housing, the TS2 and DS1 can operate in diverse conditions without compromising functionality.

To summarize, the Perle Systems TS2 and DS1 provide a reliable and flexible solution for connecting legacy serial devices to modern networks. With their support for multiple serial protocols, web-based management, robust security features, and rugged design, these devices cater to a variety of industries looking to modernize their communication infrastructure while maintaining existing equipment. Whether for large-scale operations or smaller implementations, the TS2 and DS1 equip businesses with the tools needed for effective serial communication in an IP-driven world.
