Chapter 4: Managing Units 107
Only one port may be defined as a CLI port on a CPS appliance. If a second port is defined as
a CLI port, the previously defined CLI port will be changed to a standard port. For example, if
Port 1 was defined as a CLI port and you now define Port 2 as a CLI port, Port 1 will become a
standard port and Port 2 will be the CLI port.
5. Using the drop-down menu, specify a terminal type to use for a CLI connection.
6. Type a modem initialization string that will be used by the appliance for dial-in serial CLI
access to an attached serial device. The default value is ATE0V1 SO=1.
NOTE: If you wish to access a serial device using a modem connection, you must specify PPP settings.
7. Click Allow Connect Command on Serial CLI to enable users to connect to another port on the
appliance from the CLI/console port using the Connect command.
8. Using the drop-down menu, specify a CLI access character that will be used to access CLI
mode on a serial device. The (^) character represents the
Ctrl key. For example, specifying ^D
means that pressing
Ctrl+D will enter CLI mode.
9. Click Disable Local Port Login if you do not wish to require local users to log in to the local
port. Local users will be recognized in the DSView software as having their preemption level
set there. If this option is not selected, the local user must log in to the local port and will have
a preemption level assigned to them from the DSView software or from the logged in
local account.

be assigned to the PC dialing into the PPP connection on the appliance.

and remote IP address must reside.
