h1. Menu Commands Note that it is currently planned to completely replace the menu system for the next version of wconsd, so these commands will be changing. h2. close close If the serial port is current open, this command will close it and stop any serial communications. h2. copyright copyright Print the copyright notice h2. data data *5|6|7|8* Sets the number of data bits. This command will not have any affect until the port is closed and re-opened. h2. help Show some quick help for the menu commands h2. keepalive keepalive Toggles the state of Telnet keepalives. If keepalives are turned on, then a Telnet Keepalive option is sent approximately once every two seconds. This will create significantly more network traffic than normal, but will help to avoid sessions being terminated unexpectedly h2. kill_conn kill_conn *Connection ID* Stop a given connection's serial communications. This will close the serial port being used by the given *connection ID* and thus allow someone else to open that port. This command can be used when an existing session has crashed, or if someone else has logged in and is blocking your work. Since there is no authentication, this command is obviously open to abuse. h2. open open *[port number]* Connect or resume communications with a serial port. If no port number is specified then the current default port number is used. If an serial port is already open, this will just resume communication with that port. h2. parity parity *no|even|odd|mark|space* Set the serial parity. This command will not have any affect until the port is closed and re-opened. h2. port port *port number* Set serial port number. This command will not have any affect until the port is closed and re-opened. h2. quit quit Exit from this session h2. show_conn_table show_conn_table Show the connections table. This table is mostly used for internal debugging information, however it contains the connection ID for all the current connections, which can be used with the *kill_conn* command <pre style="background-color:black; color:green"> w000c2989d2df> show_conn_table Flags: A - Active Slot, N - Network active, S - Serial active, M - Run Menu, E - Echo enabled, K - Telnet Keepalives * - This connection s flags slot state id Menu mThr Net net netTh Ser serial serialTh Echo netrx nettx peer address - ------ ---- ----- -- ---- ---- --- ---- ----- --- ------ -------- ---- ----- ----- ------------ 0 ME ACTIV 1 YES 1884 55 OK 1598 192.168.1.1:43686 1900 0 OK 1848 1840 YES 76 1886 1 ANSMEK ACTIV 2 1888 1880 YES 1860 OK 1872 0 -1 0 YES 14 1844 1836 68 4264 192.168.1.1:57184 783 2*AN ME 3 1856 1868 2 0 0 0 0 109 4657 127.0.0.1:4629 0 0 NO 0 0 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 NO 0 0 4 0 0 0 0 0 0 NO 0 0 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 NO 0 0 6 0 0 0 0 0 0 NO 0 0 7 0 0 0 0 0 0 NO 0 0 </pre> * *state* is *ACTIV* if the slot contains valid data * *id* contains the connection ID for this slot * *Menu* is *YES* if this connection is currently at the menu prompt * *Net* is *OK* if there is a network connection for this slot and signals that the other two net columns contain valid data. In normal operations, there should never be an ACTIV slot with no Net connection * *Ser* is *OK* if there is an open serial connection for this slot and signals that the other two ser columns contain valid data. h2. speed speed *bits per second* Set serial port speed. This command will not have any affect until the port is closed and re-opened. h2. status status Show current serial port status <pre style="background-color:black; color:green"> w000c2989d2df> status status: port=1 speed=9600 data=8 parity=0 stop=0 state=open connectionid=1 hostname=w000c2989d2df echo=1 keepalive=0 </pre> h2. stop stop *1|1.5|2* Set number of stop bits. This command will not have any affect until the port is closed and re-opened.
