Advanced Tab Field Descriptions

The

TruePort Advanced

tab determines how the TruePort connection is initiated and then sets up the

appropriate connection parameters.

Configure the following parameters:

Signals high
when...

This option has the following impact based on the state of the TruePort
connection:

z

TruePort Lite Mode—When enabled, the EIA-232 signals remain active
before, during, and after the TruePort connection is established. When
disabled, the EIA-232 signals remain inactive when there is no TruePort
connection and active when there is a TruePort connection.

z

TruePort Full Mode—When enabled, the EIA-232 signals remain active
before and after the TruePort connection and the TruePort client will
control the state of the signals during the established TruePort connection.
When disabled, the EIA-232 signals remain inactive before and after the
TruePort connection and the TruePort client will control the state of the
signals during the established TruePort connection.

Default: Enabled

Enable Message of
the Day (MOTD)

Enables/disables the display of the message of the day.

Default: Disabled

Enable TCP
Keepalive

Enables a per-connection TCP keepalive feature. After the configured number
of seconds, the connection will send a gratuitous ACK to the network peer,
thus either ensuring the connection stays active OR causing a dropped
connection condition to be recognized.

This parameter needs to be used in conjunction with

Monitor Connection

Status Interval

parameter found in the

Serial

,

Advanced

,

Advanced Settings

tab. The interval specifies the inactivity period before "testing" the connection.

Default: Disabled
