Line Commands
internet-address
Used with reverse sessions, users can access serial devices connected to the IOLAN by
the specified Internet Address (or host name that can be resolved by a DNS). You must
reboot the IOLAN for the
Internet Address to take affect (the kill line option does not
apply to this parameter).
keepalive
Enables a per-connection TCP keepalive feature. After the configured number of
seconds, the connection will send a gratuitous ACK to the network peer, thus either
ensuring the connection stays active OR causing a dropped connection condition to be
recognized.
This parameter needs to be used in conjunction with server parameter,
monitor-connection-every. The interval determines how long the IOLAN will wait
during inactivity before "testing" the connection. It should be noted that if a network
connection is accidentally dropped, it can take as long as the specified interval before
anyone can reconnect to the serial port.
line-name
Provide a name for the line so it can be easily identified.
lock
When enabled, the user can lock his terminal with a password using the Hotkey Prefix
(default Ctrl-a) ^a l (lowercase L). The IOLAN prompts the user for a password and a
confirmation.

values are 1-7. The default is
