1 Chapter 1 Introduction Welcome to Moxa CN2610 Dual LAN Async Server. Models are available with 8 or 16 asynchronous RS-232 ports, and all models come with two 10/100 Mbps Ethernet LAN ports. CN2610 Dual LAN Async Server is used to connect terminals, modems, printers, and other asynchronous serial devices to LAN hosts. CN2610 complies with TCP/IP and IEEE 802.3 specifications using standard Ethernet 10/100BaseT and twisted pair 10/100BaseTX cable as the data transmission medium.

CN2610 User’s Manual Getting Started Hardware Installation Desktop Place your CN2610 on a clean, flat, well-ventilated desktop. For better ventilation, attach the 4 pads from the desktop kit to the bottom of the unit, and leave some space between the CN2610 and other equipment. Do not place equipment or objects on top of the unit, as this might damage the server. Pads Bottom of CN2610 Rackmount CN2610 is designed to be mounted on a standard 19-inch rack.

CN2610 User’s Manual Getting Started Wiring Requirements ATTENTION Safety First! Be sure to disconnect the power cord before installing and/or wiring your CN2610. Wiring Caution! Calculate the maximum possible current in each power wire and common wire. Observe all electrical codes dictating the maximum current allowable for each wire size. If the current goes above the maximum ratings, the wiring could overheat, causing serious damage to your equipment.

6 Chapter 6 Setting Up Raw UDP UDP is a non connection-oriented data transmission method. By circumventing TCP’s handshaking process, UDP gains the advantages of fast transmission speed, and high transmission efficiency. The disadvantage is that UDP is unable to guarantee data integrity, since UDP does not re-assemble out-of-order packets, or retransmit packets when data is missing.

Use vi or any other text editor to add or modify entries in the file moxattyd.cf. There are three columns: Device Name, CN2610 IP address, and TCP port number in the entry for the file moxattyd.cf.

CN2610 User’s Manual Setting Up Multi-Host TTY Transparent Printer Access It’s not necessary to add additional entries to /etc/inittab for printer access, as mentioned in the section on terminal access. Since Fixed TTY driver is a fixed pseudo tty, you can easily connect a serial printer to a Moxa CN2510 serial port to execute printing commands.

13 Chapter 13 Setting Up Multiplex In this chapter, we describe how to configure Moxa CN2610 as a Multiplexor and De-Multiplexor. Using the Multiplexor/De-Multiplexor application requires two Async Servers—one attached to a host with a multi-port serial board and several serial lines, and the other connected to external devices. In this way, the original host can use a TCP/IP connection to control serial devices from a remote location.

CN2610 User’s Manual Setting Up Multiplexor Selecting the Application The Multiplex application uses two Async Servers. One of the servers (called the “host” CN2610) is attached to a host with a multi-port serial board and mutiple serial lines. The other server (called the “device” CN2610) is connected to external serial devices. In this way, one host can use a TCP/IP connection to control multiple serial devices from a remote location. We use ports 5, 6, 7, and 8 on both CN2610’s to illustrate.

14 Chapter 14 Setting Up Routing Routing is the main process used by Internet hosts to deliver packets. The Internet uses a hop-by-hop routing model, which means that each host or router that handles a packet examines the Destination Address in the IP header, computes the next hop that will bring the packet one step closer to its destination, and then delivers the packet to the next hop, where the process is repeated.

CN2610 User’s Manual Setting Up Routing What is RIP? RIP (Routing Information Protocol) is a protocol used widely to manage routing information within a self-contained network, such as a corporate LAN (Local Area Network) or an interconnected group of such LANs. By using RIP, a gateway host with a router can send its entire routing table, which lists all the other hosts it knows about, to its closest neighbor host every 30 seconds.

CN2610 User’s Manual Troubleshooting Console Terminal Problems Problem: No message is displayed on the console terminal. Solutions: ¾ Check to see if the terminal is set to 115200 bps, 8 data bits, no parity, 1 stop bit. ¾ Check to see if the RS-232 cable is wired correctly. The console needs CTS/DCD signals to trigger. Refer to the “Cable Wiring” section in Appendix D. ¾ The console may be blocked waiting for an event. Press ESC to try unblocking.

CN2610 User’s Manual Troubleshooting ¾ Check to see if the CN2610’s SLIP port baudrate (in the Port Æ Line menu) is the same as the remote host’s baudrate. ¾ Check to see if data bits = 8. ¾ Check to see if the XON/XOFF flow control is the same as the remote site. ¾ Check to see if the RS-232 cable is wired correctly. If the port is utilizing RTS/CTS hardware flow control, then the RTS, CTS pins should be included. In this case, cables with only pins 2, 3, and 7 will not work.

CN2610 User’s Manual RADIUS Server What is RADIUS? Definition Remote Authentication Dial-up User Service, or RADIUS, is the standard for centralizing the authentication, authorization, and accounting of remote access users. Here is a brief description of how RADIUS works: When a user dials in to a remote access device, that device communicates with the central RADIUS server to determine if the user is authorized to connect to the LAN.
