Sessions Tab
Overview
The
Sessions
tab is used to configure specific connections for users who are accessing the network
through the IOLAN’s serial port.
Functionality
Users who have successfully logged into the IOLAN (
User Service
set to
DSprompt
) can start up to
four login sessions on network hosts. These users start sessions through the Easy Port Menu option
Sessions
.
Multiple sessions can be run simultaneously to the same host or to different hosts. Users can switch
between different sessions and also between sessions and the IOLAN using
Hotkey
commands (see
for a list of commands).
Users with
Admin
or
Normal
privileges can define new sessions and use them to connect to Network
hosts; they can even configure them to start automatically on login to the IOLAN.
Restricted
and
Menu
users can only start sessions predefined for them in their user configuration.
