CMS-6R4 Series - User’s Guide

Direct Connect: Direct Connect allows you to access the CMS-6R4

and automatically create a connection between the Network Port and a

specific RS232 port by including the appropriate Telnet port number in

the connect command (e.g. Port 5 = 2105). For more information, please

refer to Section 6.6. As described below, the Direct Connect feature

offers three options. (Default = Off.)

Off: Telnet users will not be able to employ the Direct Connect feature

to connect to this port.

On - No Password: Telnet users will be able to employ the Direct

Connect feature to connect to this port without entering a password.

On - Password: Telnet users will be able to use Direct Connect to

connect to this port, but will be required to enter a password before the

connection is established.

Note:

If "On - Password" is selected, and Supervisor commands are

disabled at the Network Port, then only accounts that do not permit

Supervisor commands will be allowed to establish a direct connection

via the Network Port. If Supervisor commands are disabled at a given

port, then that port will not allow access by accounts that permit

Supervisor commands.
When the Port Parameters menu is accessed via the Text Interface, the

menu also lists both Direct Connect port numbers for this port (port

numbers are not listed in the Web Browser Interface.)

Telnet Port: The Telnet port number that is used to create a Direct

Connection to this port using standard Telnet protocol.

Raw Port: The Telnet port number that is used to create a Raw Socket

connection to this port. When Raw Socket Mode is used, data is

always sent "as is", and command echo is always enabled.
