Lantronix ETS Reference Manual - 6.6.2 Lock
Using the ETS
Status Displays
6-9
If you do not want to receive broadcast messages, you can enter Set Port Broadcast Disabled to refuse them
on your own port.
6.6.2 Lock
The Lock command can be used to disable access to your port without actually logging out. If you Lock
your port, you will be asked for a password and a verification of the password; the latter is used to ensure
that you typed the password correctly. Once a port is locked, it is unusable until the password is again
entered or until your ETS manager unlocks the port (which is useful when you forget the password). Like
Broadcast, locking can be disabled server-wide by the manager.
6.6.3 Logout
Obviously, Logout logs out the current port. Any connections to session or services will be disconnected.
6.6.4 Test Port
This command may be used to verify wiring and flow control setup problems with your serial port. The
command sends an identical stream of characters to the terminal, either continuously or for a specified
number of lines. If your connection is regularly dropping characters, you may be able to identify the
problem.
Note:
If multisessions are enabled on a port, only that port can issue a Test Port for
itself.
6.7 Status Displays
Three sets of commands can be used to view ETS status displays. The Show commands show the current
availability of hosts and services as well as the state of the ETS, its ports, and the local services. Monitor
commands provide a continuous display rather than a one-time look. List commands are provided to show
the current setup in permanent memory (that is, the settings that will take effect after the next reboot or
logout).
The List command is a special case, as some displays make no sense to list. Sessions and Users, for
example, have no meaning in the permanent configuration data. List Nodes also has no meaning, as it only
refers to the remote nodes.
Note:
Additional keywords apply to some commands; see the Command Reference for
full syntax.
Netstat
Shows currently active UDP/TCP/IP and LAT sessions.
Show Dialback
Shows the currently configured dialback strings, if any.
