Tunnel – Accept Mode
Controls how a specific tunnel number behaves when a connection attempt originates from the
network. In Accept Mode, the EDS waits for a connection from the network. The configurable local
port is the port the remote device connects to for this connection. There is no remote port or
address. The default local port is 10001 for serial port 1 and increases sequentially for each
additional serial port, if supported.
Accept Mode supports the following protocols:
SSH (the EDS is the server in Accept Mode). When using this protocol, the SSH server
host keys and at least one SSH authorized user must be configured.
SSL
TCP
AES encryption over TCP
Telnet (The EDS supports IAC codes. It drops the IAC codes when Telnetting and does
not forward them to the serial port).
Accept Mode has the following states:
Disabled (never a connection)
Enabled (always listening for a connection)
Active if it receives any character from the serial port
Active if it receives a specific (configurable) character from the serial port (same start
character as Connect Mode’s start character)
Modem control signal
Modem emulation
To configure the Accept Mode of a specific tunnel:
1. Select Tunnel on the menu bar, if you are not already in the Tunnel web page.
2. Select a tunnel number at the top of the page.
3. Select Accept Mode. The Accept Mode page for the specific tunnel appears.
