Chapter 3. Line Options
Keep Alive Method
Enabling one of the Keep Alive methods allows the 2XL to detect when a client disconnects.
This is recommended for most TN3270 environments, especially if any sessions are to
use pooled (non-specific) resources.
Keep Alive Timer
The Keep Alive Timer determines how often Keep Alive messages will be sent to
the client, and how soon the 2XL will recognize that a client is no longer communicating.
The default value of 5 minutes works well for most scenarios. It is strongly recommended
that a Keep Alive method be used.
Disconnect on UNBIND
This option is not used by the SCON-2XL product line.
TELNET Disconnect on UNBIND
This option is not used by the SCON-2XL product line.
SMS Server
Changing this option from NONE enables the SMS feature and assigns the selected
interface to be the SMS server. (The
SMS feature provides a means to load balance
across multiple network interfaces and multiple SCON platforms.)
SMS Poll Rate
This value determines how often the SMS server is to poll the SMS clients for a
status update.
SMS Domain Name
This field must contain the default domain name that is to be used by the SMS feature,
if the SMS feature has been enabled.
