Limit
Displays the System Name field value instead of default product name. When
enabled, the
Server Name is displayed in the IOLAN login prompt, CLI
prompt, WebManager login screen, and the heading of the Menu.
Default: Disabled
This parameter concerns the banner information (product name/software
version). This banner information is presented to a user with a login prompt.
For security reasons, you can turn off the display of this information.
Default: Disabled
When set, and a custom language file is in use, the login prompt will use the
string defined in the language file as the login prompt instead of the default
prompt,
login:.
Default: Disabled
When set, authorized users who do not have a password set, with the exception
of the Admin user, WILL NOT be prompted for a password at login with
Local
Authentication
.
Default: Disabled
When set, and the user connects to the IOLAN using WebManager, the
WebManager login screen that is displayed is generic — the Perle banner,
IOLAN model name, and firmware version are not displayed to the user.
Default: Disabled
The number of attempts a user is allowed to enter a password for a serial port
connection from the network, before the connection is terminated and the user
has to attempt to login again. For users logging into the serial port, if this limit
is exceeded, the serial port is disabled for 5 minutes. A user with Admin level
rights can restart the serial port, bypassing the timeout, by issuing a kill on the
disabled serial port.
Default: 3
