NPort 6000 Series User’s Manual Configuring Serial Port Operation Modes
7-13
ATTENTION
Inactivity time is ONLY active when Connection Control (see below) is set to Any
character/Inactivity time.
Ignore jammed IP (default=No): This option determines how the port will proceed if multiple
hosts are connected and one or more of the hosts stops responding as the port is transmitting data.
If you select No, the port will wait until the data has been transmitted successfully to all hosts
before transmitting the next group of data. If you select Yes , the port will ignore the host that
stopped responding and continue data transmission to the other hosts.
Secure (default=No): If you select Ye s , data sent through the Ethernet will be encrypted with SSL.
Destination address 1 through 4 (default=None): Specifying an IP address allows the NPort 6000
to connect actively to the remote host. At least one destination must be provided.
TCP port (default=4001): This is the TCP port number assignment for the serial port on the NPort
6000. It is the port number that the serial port uses to listen to connections, and that other devices
must use to contact the serial port. To avoid conflicts with well known TCP ports, the default is set
to 4001.
ATTENTION
Up to 4 connections can be established between the NPort 6000 and hosts. The connection speed
or throughput may be low if any one of the four connections is slow, since the one slow
connection will slow down the other 3 connections.
ATTENTION
The Destination IP address parameter can be the IP address, domain name, or the name defined
in the host table. For some applications, the user may need to send the data actively to the remote
destination domain name.
Designated local port 1 through 4 (default=5010 through 5013): Use these fields to specify the
designated local ports.
Connection control (default=Startup/None): This setting determines the parameters under which a
TCP connection is established or disconnected. The different options are given in the following
table. In general, both the Connect condition and Disconnect conditions are given.
