Configuring an Ethernet Polling Connection Type

This type of connection can be configured in EntraPass Corporate Edition for multi-site Gateways to communicate with the gateway via the network (Lantronix).

When selecting the Ethernet (Polling) option in theGeneraltab, an IP device tab will become available.

  • Enter the terminal server IP addressand Portnumber.
  • Select the communication protocol:
    • TCP if the communication is made with the gateway through a terminal server using TCP protocol. In this case, you have to configure the terminal server. To do this, follow the manufacturer’s instructions or refer to the Terminal server documentation.
    • UDP (User Datagram Protocol), uses the IP protocol to send datagrams from one Internet application to another. It is called “connectionless” because the sender and the receiver are not required to connect before the transmission of data. Check this option if the connection you are configuring uses this protocol.
