Terminal Server Configuration Using Autoconnection

This example shows a PortServer TS 8/16 functioning as a terminal server implementing

autoconnection.

• The terminals are connected to autoconnect ports. Consequently, when a user presses a terminal

key, an automatic connection to a host is made.

• The modem ports are not configured for autoconnection, but a port user is, which means that as

soon as this particular user supplies a login, an automatic connection to a host is made.

Configuration Notes

1. The first set of set ports, set line and set flow commands configure ports 1 and 2 for terminals,

autoconnection, Telnet (dport=23), and software flow control.

2. The second set ports, set line, and set flow commands set up ports 3 and 4 for incoming modem

connections and RTS/CTS flow control.

3. The set user command configures the user for automatic connection to the host specified on the

autohost field using Telnet (autoport=23).
