About This Guide
Purpose
This guide provides the following:
Configuration and administration procedures
Configuration examples
Audience
This manual is intended for the person responsible for configuring and administering Digi
One/PortServer TS 2/4. It assumes that this person has experience configuring network devices and
is familiar with networking concepts.
Scope
This manual provides step-by-step instructions for configuring and administering Digi
One/PortServer TS 2/4’s main features. It does not address how to configure every option, provide
complete information on commands, or discuss hardware installation. These topics are covered in
other documents in the Digi One/PortServer TS 2/4 library.
About Command Line Examples
In this manual, many command examples are broken up and placed on two lines of the manual. This
is done to control where the line breaks, making it as easy to read as possible. When this is done, the
second line of the command will be indented slightly, as shown below.
set menu range=6 t1="Console Management Menu" name="Console Management
Menu" m3="Connect to System 1" c3="connect 1" m4="Connect to System 2"
c4="connect 2"
About Entering Commands on the Command Line
On the Digi One/PortServer TS 2/4 command line, do not force a line break (by pressing Enter or
Return). This will commit the command before you finish adding all command fields. If your
terminal does not support wrapping to the next line and long commands scroll out of sight, the
easiest way to enter long commands is by breaking the command into multiple commands as shown
below. If you use this method, however, you must let the Digi One/PortServer TS 2/4 know that you
are configuring the same entity, such as the same port, menu, or line. This is done by repeating the
range or name field in each command.
set menu t1="Console Management Menu" range=6
set menu range=6 name="Console Management Menu" m3="Connect to System 1"
set menu range=6 c3="connect 1" m4="Connect to System 2"
set menu range=6 c4="connect 2"
