3. Direct Connect ON - PASSWORD: The Direct Connect feature is enabled at this
port, but a password must be entered before a Direct Connection is established.
a) Upon login, the RSM will prompt for a username and password. If a valid
username/password is entered, the RSM will return a message which confirms
the connection and lists the name and number of the port (providing the user
account allows access to the target port.)
b) If a valid username / password is not entered in 30 seconds or three attempts,
the port will timeout and disconnect.
Notes:
• If you intend to use SSH to establish direct connections to the RSM, the
"Direct Connect ON - PASSWORD option must be selected.
• If Supervisor commands are disabled at the Network Port, then accounts that
permit Supervisor commands will not be able to initiate a Direct Connection.
• If Supervisor commands are enabled at the Network Port, then accounts
with Supervisor access and accounts without Supervisor access will both be
allowed to establish Direct Connections.
• If your user account does not permit access to the target port, the connection
will be refused.
