14: User Authentication Data Ports The device ports with which the user may interact using the connect direct command. Enter the port numbers or the range of port numbers. Clear Port Buffers The device port buffers the users may clear using the set locallog clear command. Enter the port numbers or the range of port numbers. Enable for Dial-back Select to grant a local user dial-back access. Users with dial-back access can dial into the EMG unit and enter their login and password. Once the EMG authenticates them, the modem hangs up and dials them back. Disabled by default. Dial-back Number The phone number the modem dials back on depends on this setting for the device port. The user is either dialed back on a fixed number (specified on the Device Port - Settings page), or on a number that is associated with the user's login (specified here). Escape Sequence A single character or a two-character sequence that causes the EMG unit to leave direct (interactive) mode. (To leave listen mode, press any key.) A suggested value is Esc+A (escape key, then uppercase "A" performed quickly but not simultaneously). You would specify this value as \x1bA, which is hexadecimal (\x) character 27 (1B) followed by an A. This setting allows the user to terminate the connect direct command on the command line interface when the endpoint of the command is deviceport, tcp, or udp. See Key Sequences on page 235 for notes on key sequence precedence and behavior. Break Sequence A series of 1-10 characters users can enter on the command line interface to send a break signal to the external device. A suggested value is Esc+B (escape key, then uppercase "B" performed quickly but not simultaneously). You would specify this value as \x1bB, which is hexadecimal (\x) character 27 (1B) followed by a B. See Key Sequences on page 235 for notes on key sequence precedence and behavior. Custom Menu If custom menus have been created, you can assign a default custom menu to the user. The custom menu will display at login. Note: In the Local Users table, if the menu assigned to a local user no longer exists, it is marked with an asterisk (*). Display Menu at Login If custom menus have been created, select to enable the menu to display when the user logs into the CLI. Password / Retype Password When a user logs into the EMG, the EMG unit prompts for a password (up to 64 characters). The sysadmin establishes that password here. Password Expires If not selected, allows the user to keep a password indefinitely. If selected the user keeps the password for a set period. (See the section, Local and Remote User Settings (on page 294) for information on specifying the length of time before the password expires.) Allow Password Change Select to allow the user to change password. Change Password on Next Login Indicate whether the user must change the password at the next login. Lock Account Select to lock the account indefinitely. Account Status Displays the current account status:  Active  Locked  Locked (invalid logins) EMG™ Edge Management Gateway User Guide 298

14: User Authentication
EMG™ Edge Management Gateway User Guide
298
Data Ports
The device ports with which the user may interact using the connect direct
command. Enter the port numbers or the range of port numbers.
Clear Port Buffers
The device port buffers the users may clear using the
set locallog
clear
command. Enter the port numbers or the range of port numbers.
Enable for Dial-back
Select to grant a local user dial-back access. Users with dial-back access can
dial into the EMG unit and enter their login and password. Once the EMG
authenticates them, the modem hangs up and dials them back. Disabled by
default.
Dial-back Number
The phone number the modem dials back on depends on this setting for the
device port. The user is either dialed back on a fixed number (specified on the
Device Port - Settings page), or on a number that is associated with the user’s
login (specified here).
Escape Sequence
A single character or a two-character sequence that causes the EMG unit to
leave direct (interactive) mode. (To leave listen mode, press any key.)
A suggested value is
Esc+A
(escape key, then uppercase "A" performed
quickly but not simultaneously). You would specify this value as
\
x1bA
, which
is hexadecimal (
\
x
) character 27 (
1B
) followed by an
A
.
This setting allows the user to terminate the
connect direct
command on
the command line interface when the endpoint of the command is deviceport,
tcp
, or
udp
.
See
Key Sequences on page 235
for notes on key sequence precedence and
behavior.
Break Sequence
A series of 1-10 characters users can enter on the command line interface to
send a break signal to the external device. A suggested value is
Esc+B
(escape key, then uppercase “B” performed quickly but not simultaneously).
You would specify this value as
\
x1bB
, which is hexadecimal (
\
x
) character 27
(
1B
) followed by a
B
.
See
Key Sequences on page 235
for notes on key sequence precedence and
behavior.
Custom Menu
If custom menus have been created, you can assign a default custom menu to
the user. The custom menu will display at login.
Note:
In the Local Users table, if the menu assigned to a local user no longer
exists, it is marked with an asterisk (*).
Display Menu at Login
If custom menus have been created, select to enable the menu to display
when the user logs into the CLI.
Password /
Retype Password
When a user logs into the EMG, the EMG unit prompts for a password (up to
64 characters). The sysadmin establishes that password here.
Password Expires
If not selected, allows the user to keep a password indefinitely. If selected the
user keeps the password for a set period. (See the section,
Local and Remote
User Settings (on page 294)
for information on specifying the length of time
before the password expires.)
Allow Password Change
Select to allow the user to change password.
Change Password on
Next Login
Indicate whether the user must change the password at the next login.
Lock Account
Select to lock the account indefinitely.
Account Status
Displays the current account status:
Active
Locked
Locked (invalid logins)
