Configuring a User for Autoconnection

This topic describes how to configure a user for autoconnection. 

It deals with autoconnection features only. It assumes that you have or will configure

• The port for modem connections or terminal connections 
• Other user attributes (see the set user command).

Procedure

To configure a user to automatically connect to a host, supply a set user command that specifies the following:

• A name for the user (on the name field)
• The ports this user can use (on the ports field)
• autoconnect=on
• The IP address of the host to which the user should be connected (on the autohost field)
• The TCP port to use for connects (on the autoport field)
• defaultaccess=autoconnect

Example

In this example, a user is configured for autoconnection using telnet to the host specified. Because the password field is not specified, the default (password=on) requires that the user supply a password before the connection is made.

set user name=user4 autoconnect=on autohost=199.193.150.10 autoport=23 defaultaccess=autoconnect
