Options break

Specifies how a break is interpreted:

zoff—The IOLAN ignores the break key completely and it is not passed through to the host. This is the default setting.

zlocal—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.

zremote—When the break key is pressed, the IOLAN translates this into a telnet break signal which it sends to the host machine.

zbreak-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

-ignbrk and brkintr are set).

break-length

The length of time (in milliseconds) for which the break signal will be asserted on the se- rial port. Valid values are 0-65535.

Default is 1000 ms

A value of 0 will cause the "request to send a break signal" to be ignored.

break-delay

The length of time (in milliseconds) to delay after a break signal is sent before the IOLAN sends data. Valid values are 0-65535.

Default: 0 ms ( no delay )

connection-method

Determines how a modem will work on the line. Select from the following options:

zDirect Connect—Indicates that there is not a modem on the line. This is the default.

zDial In—Specify this option when a user is remote and will be dialing in via modem or ISDN TA.

zDial Out—Specify this option when a modem is attached to the serial port and is being used to dial out.

zDial In/Out—Specify this option when the IOLAN is being used as a router (depending on which end of the link your IOLAN is situated and how you want to initiate the communication).

data-bits

Specifies the number of bits in a byte. The default is 8.

dial-timeout

The number of seconds the IOLAN will wait to establish a connection to a remote modem. The default value is 45 seconds.

dial-retries

The number of times the IOLAN will attempt to establish a connection with a remote modem. The default value is 2.

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.
