5-4 Configuring Ports for Outgoing/Bi-Directional Connec-

Example

In this example, ports 1 and 2 are set up for incoming modem connections using RTS/CTS flow

control.

set ports range=1-2 dev=min

set line range=1-2 baud=115200

set flow range=1-2 ixon=off ixoff=off cts=on rts=on

Configuring Ports for Outgoing/Bi-Directional Connections: Command Line

This section describes how to configure outgoing and bidirectional modem connections from the

command line.

Related Information

• For more information on setting the port’s flow control attributes see the set flow command in

the Digi One/PortServer TS Command Reference.

• For information on setting serial line operating parameters such as character size, the number of

stop bits, and parity, see the set line command in the Digi One/PortServer TS Command Refer-

ence.

• For more information on configuring dialer and login scripts, see the set script command in the

Digi One/PortServer TS Command Reference.

Before You Begin

This procedure assumes that you

• Know the operating parameters required by the modem. If you do not, see the modem documen-

tation.

• Have or will correctly cable the connection between the PortServer TS 8/16 serial ports and

modems. See the Digi One/PortServer Cable Guide for more information.

• Logged in as root

Procedure

1. Supply a set ports command that specifies the following:

set ports range=range dev=dev

where range is a serial port or range of serial ports and dev is one of the following:

• dev=mout for outgoing-only connections

• dev=mio for bidirectional connections

Note: Use a group number (on the group field), if you intend to create a hunt group of ports

that can access a pool of modems. Make sure this group number is greater than 65.

Example:

set ports range=2 dev=mio

2. Supply a set line command that specifies the following:

set line range=range baud=bps

where range is a serial port or range of ports and bps is the line speed of the connection

Example:

set line range=2 baud=115200

3. Supply a set flow command that defines the flow control scheme required by the modem.

Example

In this example, ports 1 and 2 are configured for bidirectional modems.

set ports range=1-2 dev=mio

set line range=1-2 baud=115200

set flow range=1-2 ixon=off ixoff=off rts=on cts=on
