Note: The Port in Connect Mode is not the same port configured in Accept Mode. The TCP keepalive time is the time in which probes are periodically sent to the other end of the connection. This ensures the other side is still connected.

XPort® Pro Lx6 Embedded Device Server User Guide

For Connect Mode using UDP, the XPort Pro Lx6 accepts packets from any device on the

network.

It will send packets to the last device that sent it packets.

Note:

The Port in Connect Mode is not the same port configured in Accept Mode.

The TCP keepalive time is the time in which probes are periodically sent to the other end of the

connection.

This ensures the other side is still connected.

Table 6-6

Tunnel Connect Mode Settings

Tunnel Connect Mode

Settings

Description

Mode

Set the method to be used to attempt a connection to a remote host or device.

Choices are:



Disable

= an outgoing connection is never attempted. (

default

)



Always

= a connection is attempted until one is made. If the connection gets

disconnected, the device XPort Pro Lx6 retries until it makes a connection.



Any Character

= a connection is attempted when any character is read on

the serial line.



Start Character

= a connection is attempted when the start character for the

selected tunnel is read on the serial line.



Modem Control Asserted

= a connection is attempted as long as the

Modem Control pin (DSR) is asserted, until a connection is made.



Modem Emulation

= a connection is attempted when triggered by modem

emulation AT commands.

Local Port

Enter an alternative Local Port.

The Local Port is set to <Random> by default

but can be overridden.

Blank the field to restore the default.

Host 1

Click on the displayed information to expand it for editing. If <None> is

displayed, clicking it will allow you to configure a new host.

At least one Host is

required to enable Connect Mode as this information is necessary to connect to

that host.

Reconnect Timer

Set the value of the reconnect timeout (in milliseconds) for outgoing connections

established by the device.

Valid range is 1 to 65535 milliseconds.

Default is

15000.

Flush Serial Data

Set whether the serial Line data buffer is flushed upon a new network

connection.

Choices are:



Enabled

= serial data buffer is flushed on network connection



Disabled

= serial data buffer is not flushed on network connection (

default

)

Block Serial

Set whether Block Serial is enabled for debugging purposes.

Choices are:



Enabled

= If Enabled, incoming characters from the Serial Line will not be

forwarded to the network.

Instead, they will be buffered and will eventually

flow off the Serial Line if hardware or software flow control is configured.



Disabled

= this is the default setting; incoming characters from the Serial Line

are sent on into the network.

Any buffered characters are sent first.

Block Network

Set whether Block Network is enabled for debugging purposes.

Choices are:



Enabled

= If Enabled, incoming characters from the network will not be

forwarded to the Serial Line.

Instead, they will be buffered and will eventually

flow off the network side.



Disabled

= this is the default setting; incoming characters from the network

are sent on into the Serial Line.

Any buffered characters are sent first.

Email on Connect

Select an email profile number to which an email notification will be sent upon

the establishment of an accept mode tunnel.
