Terminal Profile

Overview

The Terminal profile allows network access from a terminal connected to the IOLAN’s serial port.
This profile is used to access pre-defined hosts on the network from the terminal.

Direction

The direction in which information is received or relayed:

z

Disabled—UDP service not enabled.

z

LAN to Serial—

UDP Port

can be set to

Auto Learn

or

Port

. The IOLAN

will listen on port value configured in the

Listen for connections on UDP

port

parameter for messages coming from the learned or configured port.

z

Serial to LAN—

UDP Port

can be set to

Port

only. The IOLAN will listen

on the port value configured in the

Listen for connections on UDP port

parameter and will send to the configured port.

z

Both—Messages are relayed in both directions. UDP Port can be set to

Auto Learn

or

Port

. For messages coming from the LAN to the serial

device, IOLAN will listen on port value configured in the

Listen for

connections on UDP port

parameter for messages coming from the

learned or configured port. For messages going from the serial device to
the LAN, the IOLAN will listen on the port value configured in the

Listen

for connections on UDP port

parameter and will send to the configured

or learned (if

Auto Learn

is enabled, the IOLAN must receive a UDP

message before it can send one, since the port must first be ’learned’) port.

Default: Both for UDP 1 and Disabled for all other UDP ranges

Start IP Address

The first host IP address in the range of IP addresses (for IPv4 or IPv6) that the
IOLAN will listen for messages from and/or send messages to.

Field Format: IPv4 or IPv6 address

End IP Address

The last host IP address in the range of IP addresses (for IPv4, not supported
for IPv6) that the IOLAN will listen for messages from and/or send messages
to.

Field Format: IPv4 address

UDP Port

Determines how the IOLAN’s UDP port that will send/receive UDP messages
is defined:

z

Auto Learn—The IOLAN will only listen to the first port that it receives a
UDP packet from. Applicable when

Direction

is set to

LAN to Serial

or

Both

.

z

Any Port—The IOLAN will receive messages from any port sending UDP
packets. Applicable when

Direction

is set to

LAN to Serial

.

z

Port—The port that the IOLAN will use to relay messages to
servers/hosts. This option works with any

Direction

except

Disabled

. The

IOLAN will listen for UDP packets on the port configured by the

Listen

for connections on UDP port

parameter.

Default: Auto Learn

Port

The port that the IOLAN will use to relay messages to servers/hosts. This
option works with any

Direction

except

Disabled

. The IOLAN will listen for

UDP packets on the port configured by the

Listen for connections on UDP

port

parameter.

Default: 0 (zero)
