IOLAN SDS/SCS/STS CLI Reference Guide, Version 3.6

Set SSL Server

session-escape-string

A configurable string that allows access to a port to view the multisession screen
options, allowing the various options while accessing the particular port on the
IOLAN. You can specify control (unprintable) codes by putting the decimal value in
angle brackets < > (for example,

ESC-b

is

<027>b

). The default value is

Ctrl-z s

(

<026>s

in decimal).

retry

The number of times the IOLAN will retry to transmit a TPFT packet to/from a host
when no response is received. Enter a value between 0 and 5. The default is 5. A value
of 0 (zero) means that the IOLAN will not attempt a retry should TFTP fail.

timeout

The time, in seconds, that the IOLAN will wait for a successful transmit or receipt of
TFTP packets before retrying a TFTP transfer. Enter a value between 3 and 10. The
default is

3

seconds.

ssl-passphrase

This is the SSL/TLS passphrase used to generate an encrypted RSA/DSA private key.
This private key and passphrase are required for both HTTPS and SSL/TLS
connections, unless an unencrpyted private key was generated, then the SSL passphrase
is not required. Make sure that you download the SSL private key and certificate if you
are using the secure HTTP option (HTTPS) or SSL/TLS. If both RSA and DSA private
keys are downloaded to the IOLAN, they need to be generated using the same SSL
passphrase for both to work.

Description Sets the default SSL/TLS parameters for the server.

TLSv1—The connection will use only TLSv1.

type
