Connect Local Menu Entry
Access a local service on the SCS with a general SCS command.
Local Service Menu Entry
Note: The Exit command, which only works in menu mode, allows users to
return to the SCS Local> prompt. It is helpful to include this command in your
menus until you have fully tested them--otherwise there is no way for users on
menu mode ports to return to the Local> prompt. To return to the menu from the
Local> prompt, type menu.

Using Menu/Connection Commands
Changing a Port Name
You can change a port name to reference the type of device that port is connected to. For
example, a port attached to a router could be named router. To change the name of a
port, open the configuration page for that port (Ports Configure) and enter the new
name in the Port Name field.
Changing a Port Name
You can enter more than one command in the Command field by separating each
command with a semicolon (;). The most common use of this feature is in the form:
connect {local or remote} portname;command (for example, connect local
port_2;disconnect).
This command can be shortened to con loc port_2;disc. The disconnect command
closes the connection to that port when you return to the menu.
