2.13 Change Dedicated
Dedicates a port to a Telnet, Rlogin, or SPX host, or to a LAT service. Once logged into the port, a user is
automatically connected to the host or service; the user cannot return to local mode or enter MSS
commands. Upon exiting the remote host, the user is logged out of the MSS.
The Hostlist parameter dedicates the specified port to a list of hosts. A sequential hostlist goes through a
hostlist and attempts to contact each host in its listed order. As soon as a valid connection is established,
normal data flow will occur between the MSS and the connected host. See Hostlist on page 2-58 for more
information on hostlists.
Note: Dedicating a port disables port verification. See Change Verify on page 2-51 for
more details.
Restrictions Requires privileged user status.
The MSS-VIA, MSS-Lite, and the MSS4 do not support SPX or LAT.
There can only be one dedicated service per port configured at a time. A
dedicated service will override a preferred service.
Changes to the dedicated target do not take effect until the port is logged out
or the MSS is rebooted.
Errors For all single port MSS, defining the single port as a dedicated port leaves no
easy way to log into the MSS. Only remote console port and EZWebCon
connections will work.
Specifying the “S” environment string without a timeout value will generate an
error. Including an IP address with the “S” string will also generate an error
message.
Parameters Port
MSS4 only. Specifies a particular port or group of ports.
Note: In the absence of the PortList parameter, the configuration will affect the MSS4’s
current port only.
PortList
Specify a particular port or group of ports. Port numbers are specified with
integers between 1 and 4, and should be separated with commas (for lists) or
dashes (for ranges).
