Configuration Methods 59
IOLAN+ Interface
IOLAN+ Interface
Overview
For environments that have both IOLAN and IOLAN+ models or for users who prefer to configure
using the IOLAN+ Menu or CLI, the IOLAN+ user interface is available. The IOLAN+ interface is
supported on all IOLAN SDS, SCS, and STS models up to and including 16 serial ports.
Access Platforms
The Menu is accessed by any application that supports a Telnet or SSH session to the IOLAN’s
IP address, such as Putty, SecureCRT, or from a command prompt. You can also access the Menu
from a dumb terminal or PC connected to a serial port.
Connecting to the IOLAN to Use the IOLAN+ Interface
To connect the IOLAN to using the IOLAN+ interface, follow the directions for Connecting to the
IOLAN Using the CLI on page 52.
Using the IOLAN+ Interface
After you have successfully logged in to the IOLAN, you can type iolan+ at the CLI command
prompt to access the IOLAN+ configuration menu (you must have
User Level Normal or Admin).
If you choose to use the IOLAN+ configuration interface, you should always configure the IOLAN
using the IOLAN+ interface. The IOLAN/IOLAN+ fields do not map directly between the two
interfaces. If you configure a field in the IOLAN configuration interface to a value that is invalid in
the IOLAN+ interface and then attempt to use the IOLAN+ interface, the invalid field value will
show up as ****** (all asterisks), although the IOLAN will interpret the value as valid.
Note:
The IOLAN and the IOLAN+ admin user share the same password. The default admin
password is
superuser (not iolan).
