tcpdial command: Establish a manually initiated serial to IP
connection
tcpdial operates in an identical manner to tcpperm, except that establishment of the socket
connection is not automatic and must be initiated by the tcpdial command. The simplest method
of achieving this is to map a command using the Configuration > Network > Interfaces > Serial >
Command Mappings, such as, Command to Map ATDT0800456789 maps to tcpdial asy 1
217.36.133.29 -e0. Now, whenever the attached terminal device attempts to dial the number
defined, the router maps it to an IP socket connection. In this way, you can direct multiple dial
commands to the same or different IP hosts with other simple command mappings.
The tcpdial command is available only as an application command, and has no equivalent setting
in the web interface.
tcpdab command: Cancel a tcpdial connection
The tcpdab command cancels a tcpdial connection before the connection has been made. You can
also use this command to disconnect an existing tcpdial connection on another ASY port. The
format of the command is:
tcpdab <instance> ATH
where <instance> is the number of the ASY port.
