Options

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

.

bypass-password

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

.

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 data when a port is closed; as opposed to

maintaining the port to send pending data. The default value is

Off

.

internet

The Device Server’s unique IPv4 network IP address. If you are using the Device

Server in an IPv6 network, this field can be left blank.

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 port. If this limit is

exceeded, the port is disabled for 5 minutes. A user with Admin level rights can restart

the port, bypassing the timeout, by issuing a kill on the disabled port. The default value
is

3
