The Status Screens
6.1. The Port Status Screen (/S)
The Port Status Screen lists the general status of the RSM’s sixteen RS-232 ports. To
display the Port Status Screen, access the Text Interface command mode and type /S
[Enter], the screen will appear as shown in Figure 6.1.
Note that the screen format will vary, depending upon whether the user account permits
or denies access to Supervisor commands. If the username entered at login does not
allow Supervisor commands, then the Port Status Screen will only display the status of
the ports allowed by that account.
The Port Status Screen lists the following items:
• Port: The Port Number.
Notes:
• On RSM-8 units, the internal modem port is Port 9.
• On RSM-16 units, the internal modem port is Port 17.
• On RSM-32 units, the internal modem port is Port 33.
• Name: The user-defined name for each port.
• Username: The username that was entered in order to access command mode via
this port.
• Status: The connect status of each port.
◆
If the port is connected to an RS232 port, this column will list the number of
the other RSM port in "c-nn" format, where "nn" is the number of the RSM port
connected to this port (for example, "C-07".)
◆
If the connected port is listed as "Nn" (where "n" is a number), this indicates that
the RSM RS232 port is connected to the Network port. The numbers indicate
which of the available Telnet sessions is being used (for example, "C-N5".)
• Mode: The user-selected Port Mode.
• Buffer Count: The amount of data (in bytes) stored in the buffer for this port.
