device, authentication fails. For PPP links, the password can contain up to 20 characters. For
X.25/PAD, it can contain up to 48 characters.

Login Host

The Login Host parameter specifies the IP address or DNS hostname of the host to which raw
TCP connections will be directed.

Login Port

The Login Port parameter specifies the TCP port that the raw TCP connection uses to connect
to the specified host.

Detect End of Packet

The Detect End of Packet parameter specifies whether or not the MAX unit buffers incoming
data from TCP-Clear dial-in sessions that do not require V.120 processing.

End of Packet Pattern

The End of Packet Pattern parameter specifies a character pattern that signals the end of a
packet. When the pattern matches the buffered data, the system immediately flushes the buffer
by writing all data, up to and including the pattern, into TCP packets.

Max Packet Length

The Max Packet Length parameter specifies the maximum length of the packet that can be
buffered. If End Of Packet Detection is set to Yes and a packet has not been matched, the
buffered data is flushed to TCP once the number of bytes specified in Max Packet Length is
cleared. Max Packet Length does not apply unless Encaps is set to TCP-Clear in the
Connection profile or Detect End of Packet is set to Yes. Buffering a large packet size will
impact the overall performance of the system, and may run the risk of running out of memory.

Packet Flush Time

The Packet Flush Time parameter specifies the amount of time (in milliseconds) to buffer
TCP-Clear data that does not require V.120 processing. The timer begins counting down upon
receiving the first byte of buffered data. If the specified number of milliseconds elapses before
the buffered data matches the End of Packet Pattern value, the MAX unit flushes the buffer by
writing the data into TCP packets.
