Enabling flow control enables it on both input and output.

The inactivity time‐out shuts down the service on the port if there is no input or output in the specified time‐out period.

With Modem Signal Loopbacks, the RJ‐11 IP Gateway eliminates the use of specialized cables required to change signal types and directions by performing the loopback of signal types to other signal types internally.

NativeCOM, (or any RFC‐2217 Telnet client with COM‐ PORT‐OPTION support) overrides the baud rate, size, parity, stop bits and flow control parameters.

Port Services

By default, the RJ‐11 port is configured to accept incoming TCP connections from TCP/telnet clients with outgoing service based on phone numbers dialed by the attached device (Modem Service). You may configure the ports to initiate
