Terminal Server Configuration Using Autoconnection
This example shows a Digi One and PortServer TS 2/4 acting as a terminal server implementing autoconnection.
• The terminals are connected to autoconnect ports. Consequently, when a user presses a terminal key, an auto-
matic connection to a host is made.
• The modem ports are not configured for autoconnection, but a port user is, which means that as soon as this
particular user supplies a login, an automatic connection to a host is made.

Configuration Notes
1. The first set of set ports, set line and set flow commands configure ports 1 and 2 for terminals, autoconnec-
tion, Telnet (dport=23), and software flow control.
2. The second set ports, set line, and set flow commands set up ports 3 and 4 for incoming modem connections
and RTS/CTS flow control.
3. The set user command configures the user for automatic connection to the host specified on the autohost field
using Telnet (autoport=23).
