Tunnel – Accept Mode
Controls how a specific tunnel number behaves when a connection attempt originates from the
network. In Accept Mode, the XPort Pro waits for a connection from the network. The configurable
local port is the port the remote device connects to for this connection. There is no remote port or
address. The default local port is 10001 for serial port 1 and increases sequentially for each
additional serial port, if supported.
Accept Mode supports the following protocols:
 SSH (the XPort Pro is the server in Accept Mode). When using this protocol, the SSH
server host keys and at least one SSH authorized user must be configured.
 SSL
 TCP
 AES encryption over TCP
 Telnet (The XPort Pro supports IAC codes. It drops the IAC codes when Telnetting and
does not forward them to the serial port).
Accept Mode has the following states:
 Disabled (never a connection)
 Enabled (always listening for a connection)
 Active if it receives any character from the serial port
 Active if it receives a specific (configurable) character from the serial port (same start
character as Connect Mode’s start character)
 Modem control signal (when the modem control pin is asserted on the serial line
corresponding to the tunnel)
 Modem emulation
To configure the Accept Mode of a specific tunnel:
1. Select Tunnel on the menu bar, if you are not already in the Tunnel web page.
2. Select a tunnel number at the top of the page.
3. Select Accept Mode. The Accept Mode page for the specific tunnel appears.
