IOLAN DS1/TS2 CLI Reference Guide, Version 4.3

This chapter provides definitions for IOLAN terms.

An Internet protocol that enables a diskless workstation to discover its own IP address, the IP 

address of a BOOTP server on the network, and a file to be loaded into memory to boot the 

machine. This enables the workstation to boot without requiring a hard or floppy disk drive.

An SNMP community is the group that devices and management stations running SNMP belong 

to. It helps define where information is sent.

A TCP/IP protocol that provides static and dynamic address allocation and management.

Connections that bypass the IOLAN enabling the user to log straight into a specific host. A 
direct connection is recommended where a user logging into the IOLAN is not required. 

A high-speed (10Mbps,100Mbps) cable technology that connects devices to a LAN, using one 

or more sets of communication protocols.

Uses the user ID and password stored within the IOLAN User database. 

A series of commands sent to the modem by a communications program at start up. These 

commands tell a modem how to set itself up in order to communicate easily with another 
modem.

Message of the day. This is defined by a file whose contents display when users log into the 

IOLAN.

The broadcasting of messages to a specified group of workstations on a LAN, WAN, or internet.

A communication control character sent by the receiving destination indicating that the last 

message was not received correctly.

Connections that originate from a host that go directly to a serial device through the IOLAN.

Silent connections are the same as direct connections except that they are permanently 

established. The host login prompt is displayed on the screen. Logging out redisplays this 
prompt. Silent connections, unlike direct connections, however, make permanent use of pseudo 

tty resources and therefore consume host resources even when not in use.

A protocol for managing network devices.

Identifies the devices IP address, which portion constitutes the network address and which 
portion constitutes the host address.
