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 pslave.conf
with all possible parameters, as well as sample 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
