Black Box Console Server user guide 102
TCP Port No(ignore this field unless you have selected a user Service of ‘telnet’)
(telnet only) enter the TCP/IP port number of the host with which the unit should
start the telnet service. The default port is 23; in most cases you should leave the
value at default.
phone
number
Enter a telephone number for the unit to call back the user; do not use spaces. You
must also have ‘callback’ set to on. (The number you enter is unrelated to the
‘phone_number’ or ‘dial’ parameters you can set for a line).
idle timer (you may wish to change this setting for terminal server connections) enter a period
in seconds for which the idle timer will run. Use this timer to close a connection
because of user inactivity. When the idle timer expires the unit will end the
connection. The default value is 300 seconds, meaning the idle timer will expire 300
seconds after the last activity. The maximum value is 4294967 seconds (equal to 49
days, approximately). A value of 0 (zero) means the idle timer will not expire so the
connection is open permanently.
Note: this idle timer will override the idle timer which you can configure for a line.
session timer(you may wish to change this setting for terminal server connections) enter a period
in seconds for which the session timer will run. Use this timer to forcibly close a
user’s session (connection). When the session timer expires the unit will end the
connection. The default value is 0 (zero), meaning that the session timer will not
expire (the session is open permanently, or until the user logs out). The maximum
value is 4294967 seconds (equal to 49 days, approximately).
Note: this session timer will override the session timer which you can configure for a
line.
Level This field cycles through ‘admin’, ‘normal’ and ‘restricted’. These are privilege
levels and are described in Configuring a dial in line on page 74. The ‘admin’ user
(i.e. you as system administrator) always has ‘admin’ level account (maximum
privileges).
IP Host (ignore this field unless you have selected a user service of ‘telnet’ or ‘rlogin’ or
‘tcp clear’).
0.0.0.0 - default. The unit will use the default ip host configured for all users
who login to the unit. The default ip host is set in the ‘server configuration’
menu; see Console Server, (or in the cli see command ‘set server’). The IP
address entered here does not affect the host table or any line configuration.
