5.8 Operating Tips
When connecting to the Dual-Port Network Power Switch via network, modem or
console port, keep in mind the following factors:
1. One connection at a time: Only one port can access the command mode at a
time. When a command port is busy, the Switch will react as follows:
a) Network port busy: If a second user attempts to connect via the modem
port, the Switch will send a busy message. If a second user attempts to
connect via the console port, the port will not wake.
b)Modem port busy: If a second user attempts to connect via the network
port, the connection will be refused. If a second user attempts to connect
via the console port, the port will not wake.
c) Console port busy: If a second user attempts to connect via the network
port, the connection will be refused. If a second user attempts to connect
via the modem port, the console port will disconnect and the modem port
will be granted access; the modem port has priority over the console port.
