Terminals on Multi-user Systems
Monitor DSR: You can set this field to
Yes
if you wire the
terminal’s DTR signal pin 20 to the IOLAN+
DSR signal pin 6 (
see Cabling Guide
). When
you turn the terminal off, it will reset the
IOLAN+ port, which tells the Unix host to kill
the user’s processes.
3.2 Host Table
Setup
In order for IOLAN+ to connect easily to machines on the
network it must know the IP addresses of the other
computers. IOLAN+ can have its own internal table of IP
addresses set up in the host table. This is a ‘local’ naming
system only. IOLAN+ can also use the name server utility of
your Unix system (consult your Unix system manual and
section 2-6,
Tips
).
The
Host Address Menu
is accessed from
the Administration
Menu
by selecting the
host
entry. The host table can contain
up to 10 addresses. Each entry consists of a host name and
its corresponding IP address.
