To Configure Tunnel Accept Mode Settings
Using Web Manager
To configure the Accept Mode for a specific tunnel, on the
Administration
page, click
Tunnel
> Accept Mode
and then select a tunnel number from the
Select Tunnel
drop-down list at the
top.
Using the CLI
To enter Tunnel Accept Mode command level:
enable > tunnel <number> > accept
Using XML
Include in your file:
<configgroup name=”tunnel accept” instance=”<number>

Connect Mode
In Connect Mode, the EDS3000 device continues to attempt an outgoing connection on the
network until established (based on which connection method is selected in the configuration
described in
Table 9-41
). If the connection attempt fails or the connection drops, then it retries after a timeout.
The remote node on the network must listen for the Connect Mode’s connection.
For Connect Mode to function, it must be enabled, have a remote station (node) configured, and a
remote port configured (TCP or UDP). When established, Connect Mode is always on. Enter the
remote station as an IPv4 address or DNS name. The EDS3000 device will not make a connection
unless it can resolve the address. For Connect Mode using UDP, the EDS3000 devices accepts
packets from any device on the network. It will send packets to the last device that sent it packets.
Note:
The port in Connect Mode is not the same port configured in Accept Mode. The
TCP keep alive time is the time in which probes are periodically sent to the other end of
the connection. This ensures the other side is still connected.
