12.6.34 Set/Define Ports Preferred
Specifies a default service for this port. The SCS will attempt to use the preferred service for
Autoconnecting, as well as when no service name is specified in a Connect, Telnet, SSH, or Rlogin
command.
If no environment string is specified, the service will be a Telnet connection by default.
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.
Rlogin
Specifies that the service is a default Rlogin connection. Must be used in
conjunction with the hostname parameter.
SSH
Specifies that the service is a default SSH connection. Must be used in
conjunction with the hostname parameter.
TCP
Specifies that the service is a default TCP connection. If there is no local
nameserver defined, the host must be specified with a numeric hostname. Must
be used in conjunction with the hostname parameter.
hostname
TCP host name of 40 characters or less, or an IP address in standard numeric
format (for example, 192.0.1.3).
envstring
Sets up the connection environment before the session is started. The string is
constructed with a sequence of key letters, some of which are prefaced by
either the “+” or “-.” For the available key letters and usage instructions, see
Appendix A, Environment Strings. If no environment string is specified with
the TCP parameter, the connection will default to a Telnet connection.
