Telnet Configuration Settings
•Telnet Interface Bitmask: To allow management of the AP using the CLI over a Telnet connection, set this
parameter to Ethernet (the default setting). You can also select Disabled to prevent Telnet access.
•Telnet Port: The default port number for Telnet applications is 23. However, you can use this field if you want to
change the Telnet port for security reasons (but your Telnet application also must support the new port number you
select).
•Login Idle Timeout (seconds): Enter the number of seconds the system will wait for a login attempt. The AP
terminates the session when it times out. The range is 1 to 300 seconds; the default is 30 seconds.
•Session Idle Timeout (seconds): Enter the number of seconds the system will wait during a session while there
is no activity. The AP will terminate the session on timeout. The range is 1 to 36000 seconds; the default is 900
seconds.
Serial Configuration Settings
The serial port interface on the AP is enabled at all times. See Using the Command Line Interface for information on
how to access the CLI interface via the serial port. You can configure and view following parameters:
–Baud Rate: Select the serial port speed (bits per second). Choose between 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, or
57600; the default Baud Rate is 9600.
–Flow Control: Select either None (default) or Xon/Xoff (software controlled) data flow control.
NOTE
To avoid potential problems when communicating with the AP through the serial port, Proxim recommends
that you leave the Flow Control setting at None (the default value).
