Configuring a Port So That a PC Can Function as a
Terminal or SLIP Host
Introduction
This section describes how to configure an access server port so that you can use an
attached PC as a both a terminal and a SLIP host. With this configuration, port users
can switch between terminal emulation and SLIP mode.
To configure the port so that the PC acts only like a SLIP host, refer to the Configuring
a Dedicated SLIP Port section in this chapter.
Before you configure a port for SLIP communications as shown in the following
example, you must configure the device and port characteristics as described in
Chapter 9.
Example: Configuring a PC As a Terminal and SLIP Host
The following example shows a sample port configuration that enables a PC to act as
both a terminal and a SLIP host:
