Connecting an MRV LX8020S-102AC-R Terminal Server

NN43041-310

Standard 01.11

October 2008

Note 1: It is not advisable to use putty software while trying to do rlogin

Note 2: MRV definition of autoconnect: In Procedure 62 on

page 272

and Procedure 63 on

page 273

this feature of autoconnect is required.

This command is used to specify whether or not the port will automatically
connect to either a dedicated service or a preferred service when the user logs
onto a port. Autoconnect is automatically enabled for a port when a dedicated
or preferred service is defined for that port. However, it is not disabled when
service is disabled.Autoconnect also specifies whether or not the port should
attempt to re-connect a session when a connection failure occurs.
Re-connection attempts occur at intervals specified by the SERVER
KEEPALIVE TIMER command (between 10 and 180 seconds), and a status
message displays whenever ports that are not configured with a dedicated
service attempt to connect (no messages are given for ports that are
configured with a dedicated service). Re-connection attempts continue until a
connection is made or the user terminates further attempts by entering the
local command mode.

Finally, Autoconnect helps control In-Reach Element Manager activity when
the port uses modem control signals (for example, a port connected to a
dial-up line). Before you can enable Autoconnect, you must define the port for
LOCAL access, enable MODEM CONTROL, and define a dedicated service.
