Using the AX3000
48 TCP/IP AX3000 User's Manual
This chapter covers use of the AX3000.
4.1 - TURNING ON THE AX3000
When the AX3000 is turned-on, some connections may be opened
automatically:
- screen connections: if the 'auto-connection' parameter is set to 'yes',
- auxiliary port connections: if the associated service is tty, telnet or
prt5250 (and the 'auto-connection' parameter is set to 'yes').
If a terminal session is opened, the first of the AX3000 active sessions will be
displayed.
If no terminal session is active, an 'idle screen' is displayed. For example:
<Alt><F1> → session xxx
<Alt><F2> → session yyy
<Alt><F3> → ......
In the above example:
- The maximum number of sessions is 3.
- The user has to press <Alt><Fx> to open a session
- The strings xxx in session 1 and yyy in session 2 are either the session
label (if one has been defined in the set-up), or the associated host
name.
- Session 3 is 'host free'. Each time the user opens the session
(<Alt><F3>), a host name will be requested.
