7-10 PortMaster Configuration Guide
To apply an output filter for a network user, use the following command:
Command> set user Username ofilter [Filtername]
Omitting the
Filtername
removes any filter previously set on the port.
Note – Filters will be applied to the user the next time the user dials in.
Specifying a Callback Location
You can configure the user for callback connections to enhance network security or to
simplify telephone charges. When a network user logs in, the PortMaster disconnects
the user and then calls back to the location specified for that user. The location is stored
in the location table. The PortMaster always calls back using the same port on which the
user called in. Network users have PPP or SLIP sessions started for them, as defined in
the user table.
To specify the callback location for a network user, use the following command:
Command> set user Username dialback Locname|none
To disable callback connections for the user, use the none keyword.
For more information about configuring locations, refer to Chapter 8, “Configuring Dial-
Out Locations.”
Configuring Login Users
Login users establish connections with hosts using one of the login services—dial-in,
dial-out, or two-way—described in Chapter 5, “Configuring an Asynchronous Port.”
Setting the Login Host
You must define the host to which the user is connected. The login host can be defined
in one of three ways. Table 7-4 shows the login host options.
