12.6.26 Set/Define Ports Forward Switch
Defines a “forward” key. From character (Local>) mode, typing this key functions as if the Forward
command was entered; the user may switch to the previous session without entering character mode.
Any key can be specified unless it conflicts with SCS line editing or the Break or Backward keys. The key
you specify will be stripped from the data stream, so while it won’t interfere with remote operating systems,
you will lose any functionality that key would have on local programs.
Restrictions Requires privileged user status if you want to use this command on ports other
than your own.
Parameters PortList/All
Specifies a particular port or group of ports, or all ports. Port numbers should
be separated with commas (for lists) or dashes (for ranges).
Note: In the absence of a PortList or the All parameter, the configuration will affect the
current port only.
Switch
Defines the control character. Must be used in conjunction with the character
parameter.
