Figure 4.2: CMS Application Example (Not to Scale) The example in Figure 4.2 shows one of many possible installation configurations for the CMS. In this example, ports have been configured as follows: Network Port: The Network Port allows telnet access by remote Supervisors and/or Users. When a telnet connection is established, the CMS will prompt [...]

Ports 5, 7, and 9 (User Ports): The Port Password "COLOCATION1" has been assigned to these three ports. If the CMS is contacted via the Network Port or Modem Port, and this password is entered at log in, Users will only be able to review status and connect to the devices attached to Ports 5, 7, and 9. ● Ports 12, 14, and 16 (User Ports)[...]

If you have defined the Supervisor Password, a prompt will be displayed. Key in your Supervisor or Port password and press [Enter] . If the Supervisor Password has not been defined, just press [Enter] . The "CMS>" prompt will appear. ii. Network Access: In order to access the CMS command mode via network, the IP Address, Subnet Mask an[...]

(User) Passwords. The Supervisor Password allows system administrators to invoke unit configuration commands, and the Port Passwords allow users to access specific ports in order to create connections between ports or view port configuration parameters. 5.3.1. The Supervisor Password The Supervisor Password allows access to higher level CMS configu[...]

The Port Passwords (or User Passwords) allow system administrators to restrict access to a specific group of ports. When the CMS command mode is accessed with a Port Password, users may only connect to the RS232 Ports to which they have been granted access, and review configuration parameters for those ports. Port Passwords do not grant access to C[...]

73. Hang-Up String: Defines the modem hang-up message. Although the CMS will pulse the DTR line in order to hang-up an attached modem, the Hang-Up string is often useful for controlling modems that do not use the DTR line. (Default = undefined). ❍ 8. Supervisor Mode: Permits or denies port access to Supervisor Mode. When this item is enabled (Per[...]

11. Timeout Disconnect: Enables and selects the Timeout Period for this port. If enabled, and the port does not receive or transmit data for the specified Timeout Period, the port will disconnect. When the port is set for Any-to-Any Mode, Passive Mode, or Buffer Mode, the default setting for this item is "OFF". When the port is set for Mo[...]
