FIGURE 4.8 TERMINAL SERVER APPLICATION
The fifth configuration file (the first four were described in step two) is specific to the Cyclades-TS and a sample
file with comments is supplied in the Linux file system. It is called /etc/portslave/pslave.conf. A listing of the
pslave.conf file with all possible parameters, as well as the files used to create the three applications in this
chapter, is provided in Appendix C. There are three basic types of parameters: conf.* parameters are global or
apply to the Ethernet interface; all.* parameters are used to set default parameters for all ports, and s#.* parameters
change the default port parameters for individual ports. An all.* parameter can be overriden by a s#.* parameter
appearing later in the pslave.conf file (or vice-versa). A brief description of each parameter used for the terminal
server profile is given in Figures 4.9-4.10.
