MultiVoice Gateway System Administration
Terminal-server commands
MultiVoice Gateway for the MAX— User’s Guide Preliminary November 23, 1998 10-13
If DNS has not been configured, you must specify the host’s IP address instead. Rlogin must
also be enabled in Ethernet > Mod Config > TServ Options. The arguments to the Rlogin
command are:
To terminate the remote login, use the Exit command at the remote system’s prompt. Or you
can press the Enter key and then type the escape character and a period.:
For example, to terminate a remote login that was initiated with the default escape character (a
tilde), press Enter and then type a tilde followed by a period.
TCP command
The TCP command initiates a login session to a remote host. It uses the following format:
tcp hostname port-number
where:
•
hostname is the IP address of the remote station or, if you have configured DNS, the
remote system’s hostname.
•
port-number is port to use for the session. The port number typically indicates a
custom application that runs on top of the TCP session. For example, port number 23
starts a Telnet session. However, terminating the Telnet session does not terminate the raw
TCP session.
For example:
ascend% tcp myhost
When the raw TCP session starts running, the MultiVoice Gateway displays the word
connected. You can now use the TCP session to transport data by running an application on
top of TCP. You can hang up the device at either end to terminate the raw TCP session. If you
are using a remote terminal-server session, ending the connection also terminates raw TCP.
Argument Description
hostname If you configure DNS, you can specify the remote system’s hostname.
Otherwise,
hostname must be the IP address of the remote station.
-e
char Sets the escape character to char . For example:
rlogin -e$ 10.2.3.4
The default for char is a tilde (~).
-l username Specifies that you log into the remote host as
username , rather than as
the name you used to log into the terminal server. You can specify the
-l option before or after
hostname . For example, the following two
lines perform identical functions:
rlogin -l jim 10.2.3.4
rlogin 10.2.3.4 -l jim
If you did not log into the terminal-server through RADIUS or
TACACS, you can use this option on the command line instead of being
prompted for it by the remote host.
