Command Reference Guide
/C Connect
Establishes a bidirectional connection between two ports. For more
information and command line examples, please refer to Section 8.1. There
are two types of port connections:
• Resident Connect: If the /C command specifies one port name or
number, your resident port will be connected to the specified port.
• Third Party Connect: If the /C command specifies two port names or
numbers, the unit will connect the two ports indicated. A Third Party
Connect command must be issued from a third port where Supervisor
Mode is active. Passwords and ports that do not permit Supervisor Mode
cannot initiate a Third Party Connect.
Note:
• Passwords and ports that do not permit Supervisor Mode can only
connect to the ports that are specifically allowed by the password
entered at log in.
• Passwords and ports that permit Supervisor Mode can connect to
any free APS-8/16M port.

not change restricted parameters at Ports 1 and 2 or the Internal Modem Port.
