ASYNC ROUTER AR-P, AR-5, AND SYNC ROUTER REFERENCE MANUAL

161

clientname—If you enter a clientname a new record is added to the database and you are prompted to

enter each of the client’s characteristics, i.e., password, etc. If you do not enter a client name, then you
will be prompted for the name and then the client characteristics. For convenience, once you are done,
you are prompted to add another client to the database. Do not use root, modem0, eth0 (interface names),
etc. as client names. Additional client characteristics are:

Client password—When you enter the password, keep in mind that it is case-sensitive in Router
applications and not case-sensitive in Async Client applications.

Account enabled—Allows the client to log on. Disabling the account allows the administrator to keep the
database entry for a specific client while temporarily preventing that client’s access. For example, this is
useful when a person is out of town or on vacation.

Access time—Confines a client’s Router access to certain times of the day. Specifies when a client is
allowed access to the Router, depending on what is defined by the Router’s client access shift command.
Access allowed during the client access shift is called “in”; access allowed outside of the client access shift
is called “out”; access at any time is called “both”. For each client, specify only one of the three values: in,
out, or both. The Router has only one client access shift used for every account in the database. The
default access time is 24 hours, meaning that access is allowed all day.

Time quota—Each client may have a daily time quota for access to the network. The time quota is only
activated for accounts with specified security callback number. The daily usage is stored for each client in
memory and can be examined using the client list command. The time quota is specified in minutes. The
default time quota is 1440 minutes or 24 hours.

Idle timeout—Disconnects a client after a certain amount of time has elapsed without data transmission.
The idle timeout is specified in seconds, with default set to 240 seconds or 4 minutes.

Callback phone #—Adds another level of access security. When a client calls, once the client is validated
and allowed access during the current shift, the Router examines the security callback number of that
client. If the client is an Async Client, the router:

• tells the client to disconnect

• calls back the client at the security callback number

Callback phone # is only available for Async Clients.

client delete [all | clientname]

Delete a specific client’s record or all clients’ records.

all—Enter all to delete all existing records.

clientname—Enter the specific client name whose record you wish to delete.

client list [clientname]

List a specific client’s record or, if you do not enter a name, list all clients’ records.

clientname—Enter the specific client name whose record you wish to display.

client modify [clientname]

Change an existing client record’s characteristics.

clientname—Enter the client name associated with the record you wish to change, and you are

prompted with the client characteristics. For convenience, after you modify one client record, you are
prompted for additional records to modify.
