- User and Administration Guide
The TERM field
The
TERM
field in the
Port Setup Menu
can be used to pass
the terminal type information to the host. The
terminal type
field is local to the IOLAN+ but will be passed to the host.
The
TERM
field can override the information being sent to
the host about the type of terminal. This allows you to
customise information being passed to the host. For
example, a user could encode the physical location into this
field (i.e. tty16) and then extract that at the host end to
determine which port the user has logged in on (i.e. port 16).
Gateway Tables
When the host and IOLAN+ are connected via a gateway
router, a connection is not possible until the gateway table
has been updated with the IP address of the local gateway
machine. See section 9.7, the
Gateway Menu
section of
The Menu Interface
.
