5. Click Submit. The host is configured. A second host appears underneath the newly
configured host.Repeat these steps to configure additional hosts as necessary. EDS supports
configuration of up to sixteen hosts.
Host Mode Select the host mode if you have more than one host configured:
Sequential
Simultaneous
Note: See Connecting Multiple Hosts on page 70 for more information.
Reconnect Timer Enter the reconnect time in milliseconds. The device attempts to reconnect after
this amount of time after failing a connection or exiting an existing connection.
This behavior depends upon the Disconnect Mode.
Note:
When you configure Tunnel - Connect Mode, you can specify a number
of milliseconds to attempt to reconnect after a dropped connection has
occurred. The default is 1500 milliseconds.
The Reconnect Timer only applies if a Disconnect Mode is configured.
With a Disconnect Mode set, the device server maintains a connection
until the disconnect mode condition is met (at which time the device server
closes the connection). If the tunnel is dropped due to conditions beyond
the device server, the device server attempts to re-establish a failed
connection when the specified reconnect interval reaches its limit.
Any network-side disconnect is considered an error and a reconnect is
attempted without regard to the Connect Mode settings. Simultaneous
Connect Mode connections require some Disconnect Mode
configurations or the connections will never terminate. See Tunnel –
Disconnect Mode on page 71 for more information about the parameters.
If Disconnect Mode is disabled and the network connection is dropped,
then the re-establishment of a tunnel connection is governed by the
configured Connect Mode settings.

Enabled = flush the serial line when a connection is made.
Disabled = do not flush the serial line. (default)

This is a debugging tool that causes network data sent to the device to be
ignored.
