Terminal Server (Detailed Setup)

The following section give details on configuring the NETServer
as a terminal server from the command line. For instructions on
how to attach to the command line software, see Connecting to
the Command Line
in Chapter 2.

Configuring a Port

Ports used for terminal service must be configured as User
Login ports.

Step 1 - Set the port type to User Login

The following command configures a port for terminal service:

set s<port #> login

Step 2 - Set the port’s security (Pass-Thru Login)

This setting determines what the NETServer will do with users
who are not in its User Table. You can turn security on or off.

On

If a user does not enter a user name/password pair that
can be found in the NETServer’s user table, check with
the RADIUS security server (if present). The connection
is terminated for all users who are not in either the
NETServer’s user table or the RADIUS database. Use
the following command:

set s<port #> security on

Off

(Default) Do not consult RADIUS. Anyone dialing in to
this port who does not enter a valid user name and
password will be connected directly to the Port Default
Host without being authenticated.

set s<port #> security off
