Features of Terminal 
Service at Async Serial 
PortThe 3Com Router supports remote configuration on the router via asynchronous 
serial port (including synchronous/asynchronous serial port, 8/16 asynchronous 
serial port, and AUX port). Please refer to 
Chapter 2 “3Com Router User 
Interface”of this manual for the specific method to establish the configuration 
environment.
The remote terminal service features of the asynchronous serial port are shown in 
the following...

Terminal Message Service59
with user B, user A should telnet onto Router B and execute the send command to 
send the related information in all views. Then user B can receive the “message” 
sent from user A. If user B does not want to receive additional similar messages, 
they can use the 
send switch command to disable the function of receiving 
messages.
Configure Terminal 
Message ServiceTerminal message service configuration includes:
■Send message to terminals
■Enable/disable receiving messages from...

Terminal Service of Telnet Connection63
Figure 29   Telnet client service
Reverse Telnet OverviewReverse Telnet service: the user logs on the router with a specified port number by 
running the Telnet client program on the PC. Then the connection to the serial 
port device connected with the async port of the router is established. One 
example: the 3Com Router performs remote configuration and maintenance of 
the external devices connected with its 8/16 asynchronous port with Reverse 
Telnet service....

Terminal Service of Telnet Connection65
The interface listen port number is within the range of 1025 to 65535. Please note 
that the listen port number cannot be the same as that of the widely used ports. 
By default, the port number and asynchronous interface have the following 
relations:
■The async serial interface number starts from 2001. For instance, the first async 
serial interface number is 2001, the second is 2002, and so on.
■The AUX interface number is 3000. 
■The sync serial interface number...

The host is connected to the router, then communicates with the device 
connected to the seventh asynchronous serial interface of the router. The IP 
address of the router is 10.110.164.44.
