5-6 PortMaster Configuration Guide
Setting the Login Message
The PortMaster allows you to specify a message for each port, up to 240 characters long,
that is displayed to the user before login. To insert a new line, use a caret (^). Do not
include double quotation marks within the message.
To set a login message for a port, use the following command:
Command> set S0 message String
For example:
Command> set s1 prompt Welcome to the FTP Server
Setting an Optional Access Filter
An access filter can provide additional login security. To enable access security, you must
define an access filter as described in Chapter 9, “Configuring Filters.”
Setting Port Security
Port security requires that each username be found in the user table or in the RADIUS
database. If port security is on, all users who log in must have their usernames verified
before they are allowed to connect to the specified host.
If security is turned off, any user not found in the user table is passed through to the
host for authentication. If you are using RADIUS authentication, security must be
turned on.
To turn security for a port on or off, use the following command:
Command> set S0 security on|off
Allowing Users to Connect Directly to a Host
With the automatic login feature, you can set up users so that they connect directly to a
specified host without receiving a login prompt. When you set
String
to a username with
the set autolog command, the PortMaster product automatically substitutes that
username for the login prompt and starts the host session.
