6: Using the Server 6.1 Logging In and Out 6.1.1 Logging In Each port on the Server can support a device such as a printer. Use the following steps to log into the Server: 1 Telnet into the Server. 2 If the Server manager has enabled password protection you will see the words Login Password>. Type the login password and press the Return key. 3 If this port has no permanent username associated with it, the Server will respond with Username> . You can enter up to 16 characters as a username, or type Ctrl-Z to use the port name as your user name. 4 You will see the Local_x> prompt, where x is your port number. You are now in Server Local mode, and you can enter only the Server commands for which you are privileged. Type Help if you need information about the Server command set. 6.1.2 Logging Out When you're through using the Server, type Logout at the Local> prompt. You can also type either Ctrl-D or Ctrl-Z at the local prompt to log out. The Server will then await another login. You may remain logged into the Server (with or without active sessions) perpetually, with a few possible exceptions. x Many hosts are set to log off users after a set period of inactivity; this will not affect your login to the Server. x The Server supports an inactivity logout timer of its own. If the Server manager has enabled this feature, you will be logged out of the Server after a preset period of inactivity, usually ranging from 15 to 120 minutes. x If the DSRLogout option is enabled, you may be logged out automatically whenever your connection is disrupted. 6.2 Configuring Your Port 6.2.1 Privileged Port Commands There are several Set Port options that the manager (or privileged user) can set. These usually are used when configuring the port for the first time, and are rarely changed. 6-1
