10-36 Command Reference

You can find these drivers (daemons called nettty and in.pmd) on
the U.S. Robotics web site.

To configure a port for Host Device use,

set s<port #> device /dev/<device name>

If you are using a UNIX pseudo TTY driver in conjunction with
the host device setting, the <device name> field must contain
the name of the pseudo TTY device being used. See Chapter 7
for more information on using such a driver. If you are not
using a pseudo TTY driver, this field should contain the word
network.

If you want to set the port to both User Login and Host Device,
use the following command:

set s<port #> twoway /dev/<device name>

You can also enable any of the Network port settings (except
Hardwired) by inserting the network parameters before the
word device. For example:

set s4 network dial in device /dev/network

Device Service

When configuring a host device port, choose which service hosts
will use to establish connections with the modem: PortMux,
Rlogin, Telnet, or Netdata. The default is Netdata, which
provides a clear TCP connection to the port. Use the following
command:

set s<port #> service_device <service> <TCP port #>

<TCP port #> is the port number that will be assigned to the
modem. We suggest 6000 plus the modem number. For ex-
ample, if you entered the following command,

set s10 service_device telnet 6000

a host would use the following command to get to the modem’s
command line:

telnet <NETServer’s IP address> 6000
