The PortServer II/TS models can support up to four telnet sessions per port by default. This value can be increased, the following example shows how to increase the sessions to five:
set port range=(port_number) sess=5
To use the multiple telnet session feature, login to the PortServer II/TS directly from a serial port (do not use telnet) and initialize the first telnet session:
#> telnet (ip_address)
To establish a new telnet connection press ] . At the PortServer II/TS prompt, type a new telnet command:
----Main-----
#> telnet (ip_address)
To switch back and forth between the two sessions:
[Ctrl] ] 1 <--To return to the first session
[Ctrl] ] 2 <--To return to the second session
The same steps would apply up to the number of sessions defined under the port setting.
