IOLAN DS1/TS2 CLI Reference Guide, Version 4.1

banner

This parameter concerns the banner information (product name/software version). This

banner information is presented to a user with a login prompt. For security reasons, you
can turn off the display of this information. The default is

Off

.

break

Enables/disables the existing Reverse Telnet break signal and the out-of-band break

signals for TruePort. The default value is

Off

When set, authorised users who do not have a password set, with the exception of the

Admin user, WILL NOT be prompted for a password at login with

Local

Authentication

.

dhcp/bootp

Enables the DHCP/BOOTP client process in the IOLAN. By default, this is

disabled/off. If this is enabled, the server IP address parameter is disabled.

domain_name

Unique name for your domain, your location in the global network. Like Hostname, it is

a symbolic, rather than a numerical, identifier.

flush-on-close

When enabled, deletes any pending outbound data when a port is closed; as opposed to
maintaining the port to send pending data. The default value is

Off

.

internet

The IOLAN’s unique IPv4 network IP address. If you are using the IOLAN in an IPv6

network, this field can be left blank.

monitor-connection-every

Specify how often, in seconds, the IOLAN will send a TCP keepalive. This only applies

to line service types that support the keepalive feature. The default interval is every 30
seconds.

name

You must supply a name for the IOLAN.

netmask

The network subnet mask. For example, 255.255.0.0.

oem-login

When set, and a custom language file is in use, the login prompt will use the string

defined in the language file as the login prompt instead of the default prompt,

login:

.

password-limit

The number of attempts a user is allowed to enter a password for a serial port
connection from the network, before the connection is terminated and the user has to

attempt to login again. For users logging into the serial port, if this limit is exceeded,

the serial port is disabled for 5 minutes. A user with Admin level rights can restart the
serial port, bypassing the timeout, by issuing a kill on the disabled serial port. The

default value is

3
