ConsoleServer 3200 System Lightwave Communications
Rev. A - 76 - www.lightwavecom.com
The user interface for the network card is exactly the same as that for the terminal card, with a
few minor exceptions. When a user first connects to the network card, the card will display
Welcome to the Console Server 3200, the SCS3230 terminal port number for the
connection, and the IP address of the network card. Once at the LCI3200> prompt, the user
interface behaves exactly the same as for the terminal cards.
At power-up, the network card does not respond to network connect requests until the
control card has completed its system initialization. Once the power-up sequence is
complete, the network card obtains its network parameters from the control card, and is
ready to accept connections over the network. It is important to note that the network
card does not retain its network parameters (i.e., IP address, subnet mask, gateway
address) if moved from one card slot to another. The network parameters remain
assigned to a card slot, and will be assigned to whatever network card is in that slot.
8.3 Modem Card
The modem card allows users to remotely access the servers attached to the SCS3230
via a dial-up connection. The modem automatically detects the connection speed, and
allows connections of up to 38.4K baud. The control card must complete its start-up
initialization check before a user may access the SCS3230 through the modem card.
The modem card must be installed in card slot "A" of the SCS3230 chassis. The
modem card will not function if it is inserted in any other card slot, nor will any other card
type function in slot A. To connect the modem card to the telephone network, insert an
ordinary telephone cable (RJ11) in the jack on the modem card, and insert the other
end in a telephone network jack, as outlined in section 5.3. See section 6.6 for
instructions on setting the modem initialization string.
The user interface for the modem card is identical to that found on the terminal card with
the exception of one command, which is outlined below. Only one user at a time may
connect to the modem card.
8.3.1 The Bye Command
A user may disconnect from the modem card and automatically log out from the SCS3230 by
sending the BYE command. This command will work at any login level that the user may send
commands to the SCS3230 (i.e., logged out, logged in, and monitor mode). When the
command is received, the modem card disconnects the telephone connection, and then logs the
user out from the SCS3230. This command is unique to the modem card user interface.
