Specifications

Trap Server Port: This is the port used by Remote Link to communicate with the SCS-101, SCS-104,

iCOM or iCOM-E installed in the SCS-1 or SCS-1R.

Auto Send Traps: This enables Remote Link to resend the trap command continuously to the SCS-1R

receive. This prevents the receiver from discarding the trap after a four-hour period. The trap is

resent based on the number of seconds programmed into the Auto Send Delay. Default is disabled.

Auto Send Delay: If Auto Send Traps is enabled, enter the number of seconds that Remote Link

waits between resetting traps. Default is 180 seconds. Minimum is 30 seconds.

Customer: Choose a customer from the drop-down list. Traps will be sent only to the accounts of the

customer selected.

SOCKS Pro xy

A SOCKS proxy server is a server-based computer application used to transfer data between client

computers using a set of filtering rules for enhanced security. SOCKS is an abbreviation for "sockets,"

which are connection points on the Internet. The SOCKS Internet protocol serves to keep client

machines safe and anonymous for security purposes and to help speed up the access of routinely

accessed data, especially when used in conjunction with a firewall.

How SOCKS works

SOCKS works as a client/server. A users’ workstation must have a SOCKS client installed, either in the

application (such as putty, Firefox), or in the TCP/IP where the client software redirects packets into

a SOCKS tunnel.

The SOCKS client will initiate a connection to a SOCKS server. The SOCKS protocol allows

authentication and logging of the connection requests.

The SOCKS server then acts as the IP Client for the connection request. This means that the external

server is only aware of the SOCKS Server (the proxy).
