TCP alive check time (default=7 min): This field specifies how long the NPort 6000 will wait for a response
to “keep alive” packets before closing the TCP connection. The NPort 6000 checks connection status by sending
periodic “keep alive” packets. If the remote host does not respond to the packet within the time specified in this
field, the NPort 6000 will force the existing TCP connection to close. For socket and device control modes, the
NPort 6000 will listen for another TCP connection from another host after closing the connection. If TCP alive
check time is set to 0, the TCP connection will remain open even if there is no response to the “keep alive”
packets.
Inactivity time (default=0 min): This field specifies the idle time setting for auto-disconnection. A setting of
0 min. will cause the port to remain connected even if idle.
TCP port (default=4001): This is the TCP port number assignment for the serial port on the NPort 6000. It
is the port number that the serial port uses to listen to connections, and that other devices must use to contact
the serial port. To avoid conflicts with well known TCP ports, the default is set to 4001.
Authentication type (default=None): This field allows you to configure the method used, if any, to verify a
user’s ID and authorization.
