Logging Into a Port
Logging into a port on the AWAN access server involves a series of events. Some of
these events require input from the user, but most are automated. If the Autoconnect
feature is configured for asynchronous terminals, the entire login procedure is
automated. The port login procedure consists of the following events:
•
Port access
•
Modem signals required
•
Protocol detection
•
User validation
•
Session protocol selection
•
6530 terminal detection
•
Enter Username> prompt
•
Local> prompt
Each event in the login sequence is described in the following subsections. Examples of
port login messages are provided in Sample Screens of Common Port Login Sequences
on page C-11.
Port Access
Port login only applies to ports that are configured with Access Local or Access
Dynamic. (Access may be configured on the Adv. Line tab dialog box in the RAS
Management Tool or by using the Define Port Access command.) Access Remote, which
is used for serial printer connections, does not use login since a remote host or Telnet
client initiates the session. Access None disables the port, ignoring all input from the
device and refusing session requests from remote hosts.
