Serial Port Access Tab

Overview

The

Serial Port Access

tab controls the user’s read/write access on any given IOLAN serial port.

This pertains to users that are connecting from the network to a serial over a Console Management
type session.

This can be useful when you have multiple users connecting to the same serial device and you wish
to control the viewing and/or the write to and from the device. See the

Multisessions

and

User

Authentication

parameters in the

Console Management Profile on page 117

for the serial port

settings.
