Asynchronous Gateway (AG) Server
The RouteFinder 100 supports a built-in async communications gateway. The AG Server group allows the
server to be enabled or disabled, display one of two connection manager logon screens, and displays the IPX
receives per session.
Enable =[enable I disabled]
Enables or disables the Async Gateway (AG) server. If the AG Server is disabled in the Applications Setup
dialog box, the AG Server dialog box in the WAN Port Setup dialog box will not appear.
Display Connection Manager Menu =[enable I disabled]
A Remote Control client can be greeted with one of two types of logon screens, if a Remote Control Host is
waiting for a connection through the gateway and the software redirector is set for inbound mode. The type of
logon screen is dependent on if the Display Connection Manager Menu check box is enabled or disabled. If
the Display Connection Manager Menu check box is enabled (checked), the default Logon screen is displayed
with a list of the hosts waiting for a connection. An optional logon screen which displays the words
CONNECTION MANAGER is displayed if the Display Connection Manager Menu check box is not checked.
Default Logon Screen
The default Logon screen displays a list of the hosts waiting for a connection and allows the remote control
client to see and select the number correlating to the desired host.
Optional Logon Screen - The optional Logon Screen requires the client to know which remote control hosts
are waiting for a connection. The client is prompted for a user name and password and will have to enter the
appropriate information to access the host (if available). Main difference is there’s no list showing the
available hosts and thus the remote user will not know how many remote control hosts are available. Some
administrators may find this to be a security perk.
