Setting-Up the Office Server in Interactive Mode


AXEL Office Server

To establish a connection, the TCP/IP terminal must open a telnet session into
the Office Server. The Office Server's IP address and the TCP port of the Office
Server serial line are given as arguments to the telnet command. For example:

telnet axname 2048 <CR>

Two Office Servers can be used to link 2 devices through a network. This
allows long distance connection.

The setting is very easy. A client service (telnet or tty) is needed on the first
Office Server and a server service (telnet or tty) is needed on the second Office
Server.

2.6 - BACKUP HOST

When a client service (tty or telnet) is used, a backup host can be set-up. A
backup host is a secondary host that can be used when the primary host fails.

For tty and telnet client services, the last parameter is 'Backup Host Used'.

Answer 'n' to not use a backup host.
