Configuring an Asynchronous Port 5-5
General Asynchronous Port Settings
Setting the Dial Group
You can create modem pools for dial-out connections by associating ports and dial-out
locations with dial groups. Dial groups can be used to reserve ports for dial-out to
specific locations, or to differentiate among different types of modems that are
compatible with the remote location. Dial groups are numbered 0 to 99. The default dial
group is 0.
To assign a port to a dial group, use the following command:
Command> set S0 group Group
Displaying Extended Port Information
The PortMaster can display port information in brief or extended modes. The default
setting is off.
To enable or disable extended information for a port, use the following command:
Command> set S0 extended on|off
Note – This command only affects the display of port information. It does not affect port
behavior.
Setting the Login Prompt
You can set a custom login prompt for each port using any valid ASCII characters. The
default login prompt is $
hostname
login:. For example, on a host named marketing, the
login prompt is marketing login:. Double quotation marks and control characters must
not be used inside the login prompt.
To set a login prompt for a port, use the following command:
Command> set S0 prompt String
For example
:
Command> set s1 prompt marketing
