About Autoconnection
Introduction This section describes the two autoconnection methods.
Autoconnection
Methods
The autoconnection feature allows you to configure a user to access the
PortServer II but then be automatically connected to a host on the LAN.
You can implement autoconnection in the following ways:
• By port. In this case, all port users are automatically connected to the
same host. The PortServer II is completely transparent to them.
• By user. In this case, a user is required to login and may be required
to supply a password, but once the user is authenticated, an auto-
matic connection to a hosts made.
