Line Commands
break
Specifies how a break is interpreted:
z
off—The IOLAN ignores the break key completely and it is not passed through to
the host. This is the default setting.
z
local—The IOLAN deals with the break locally. If the user is in a session, the
break key has the same effect as a hot key.
z
remote—When the break key is pressed, the IOLAN translates this into a telnet
break signal which it sends to the host machine.
z
break-interrupt—On some systems such as SunOS, XENIX, and AIX, a break
received from the peripheral is not passed to the client properly. If the client wishes
to make the break act like an interrupt key (for example, when the stty options
-ignbrk
and
brkintr
are set).
map-cr-crlf
When
Line Service Printer
is selected, defines the default end-of-line terminator as
CR-LF (ASCII carriage-return line-feed) when enabled. Default is
Off
.
data-logging
When enabled, serial data will be buffered if the TCP connection is lost. When the TCP
connection is re-established, the buffered serial data will be sent to its destination (this
option is not available when
Monitor DSR
,
Monitor DCD
, or
Multihost
is enabled).
The data buffer is 4K for desktop models and 32K for rack mount and medical unit
models. If the data buffer is filled, incoming serial data will overwrite the oldest data.
The default is
off
.
flowin
Determines if input flow control is to be used. Default is
On
. This is active only when
Line Flow Control
is set to
Soft
,
Hard
, or
Both
.
flowout
Determines if output flow control is to be used. Default is
On
. This is active only when
Line Flow Control
is set to
Soft
,
Hard
, or
Both
.
hotkey-prefix
The prefix that a user types to lock a line or redraw the Menu. The default value is
hex
01
, which corresponds to
Ctrl-a
(
^a
) (hex value 02 would be Ctrl-b (^b), etc.):
z
^a l
—(Lowercase L) Locks the line until the user unlocks it. The user is prompted
for a password (any password, excluding spaces) and locks the line. Next, the user
must retype the password to unlock the line.
z
^r
—When you switch from a session back to the Menu, the screen may not be
redrawn correctly. If this happens, use this command to redraw it properly. This is
always
Ctrl R
, regardless of the
Hotkey Prefix
.
You can use the
Hotkey Prefix
key to lock a line only when the
Line
Lock
parameter is
On
.
initial
Specifies the initial interface a user navigates when logging into the line; either the
Menu
or a prompt for the
CLI
. The default is
CLI
.
