8: Device Ports
SLB™ Branch Office Manager User Guide 83
Starting SSH Port
Each port is assigned a number for connecting via SSH.
Enter a number (1025-65535) that represents the first port.
The default is 3000 plus the port number. For example, if
you enter 3001, subsequent ports are automatically
assigned numbers 3002, 3003, and so on.
Starting TCP Port
Each port is assigned a number for connecting through a
raw TCP connection. Enter a number (1025-65535) that
represents the first port. The default is 4000 plus the port
number. For example, if you enter 4001, subsequent ports
are automatically numbered 4002, 4003, and so on.
You can use a raw TCP connection in situations where a
TCP/IP connection is to communicate with a serial device.
For example, you can connect a serial printer to a device
port and use a raw TCP connection to spool print jobs to
the printer over the network.
Note: When using raw TCP connections to transmit binary
data, or where the break command (escape sequence) is
not required, set the Break Sequence of the respective
device port to null (clear it).
Caution: Ports 1-1024 are RFC-assigned and may conflict with services
running on the SLB branch office manager. Avoid this range.
