Menu mode
The menu interface lists up to four local hosts. Users select a hostname to initiate a Telnet
session to that host. The menu interface with four hosts looks like this:
Up to 16 lines of up to 80 characters each
will be accepted. Long lines will be truncated.
Additional lines will be ignored
1. host1.abc.com
2. host2.abc.com
3. host3.abc.com
4. host4.abc.com
Enter Selection (1-4, q)
Immediate mode
In immediate mode, the terminal server initiates a Telnet, Rlogin, or TCP connection to one
specified host without giving the dial-in user a choice. The host requires the login name and
password to be entered by the user, not by the terminal server.
Enabling terminal-server calls and setting security
To enable the MAX unit’s terminal servers, open Ethernet > Mod Config > TServ Options and
set the TS Enabled parameter to Yes.
In the same profile, you can set the terminal-server Security parameter to None, Partial, or Full.
The setting determines whether users are prompted for a login name and password before
entering the terminal server. Its meaning is partly dependent on whether users log into menu
mode or terminal mode, and whether they are allowed to toggle between these two modes:
• With the Security parameter set to None, no prompt appears for a login name and
password.
• With the Security parameter set to Partial, a prompt for a name and password appears
when a user enters terminal mode. The prompt does not appear in menu mode.
• With the Security parameter set to Full, a prompt for a name and password appears upon
initial login, regardless of the interface.
The modem parameters
Calls from analog modems are directed first to the MAX digital modems, where the
connections must be negotiated before being directed to the terminal-server software.
