Services

Overview

Services are either daemon or client processes that run on the IOLAN. You can disable any of the
services for security reasons.

Functionality

If you disable any of the daemons, it can affect how the IOLAN can be used or accessed. For
example, if you disable the WebManager service, you will not be able to access the IOLAN with the
WebManager. If you disable the DeviceManager service, the DeviceManager will not be able to
connect to the IOLAN. If you do not want to allow users to Telnet to the IOLAN, you can disable the
Telnet Server service; therefore, disabling daemons can also be used as an added security method for
accessing the IOLAN.

By default, all daemon and client applications are enabled and running on the IOLAN.
