JETSTREAM or LANSTREAM Configuration
The JETSTREAM or LANSTREAM configuration consists of two parts:
• Configuring the unit to recognise the host.
• Configuring the serial ports for use with TruePort.
The ‘Service’ on each port can be configured as either ‘Silent Raw’ or ‘Direct Raw’. In Silent Raw mode, the connection is established automatically, while in Direct Raw mode the user has to explicitly start each connection at boot time.

Adding the Host
The host must be added to the JETSTREAM or LANSTREAM. This can be performed using the add host Command Line Interface (CLI) command, e.g.
add host NT4 192.152.247.61
Alternatively, the host may be added to the unit using either the ‘Text Menus’ or the JETSET configuration software. This host is then configurable for TruePort.
Configuring the Unit Ports
The lines you will use to connect to the host must be set up as follows:
Host:The name of the NT host
Service:SILENT RAW or DIRECT RAW
Host Port:10000 for TruePort port 1;
10001 for TruePort port 2; etc.
To configure the JETSTREAM or LANSTREAM unit(s), match the TCP/IP ports on the unit(s) to the TCP/
IP ports specified in the corresponding COM n entries on the NT host.
It is recommended that:
• The ports are configured sequentially, starting at TCP/IP port 10000.
• The ports are configured so that it is easy to tell which port is on which unit.
Remember to save the configuration on each unit.
Example of Configuring the Unit Ports
In this example we will configure a 24 port JETSTREAM 8500 and a 16 port LANSTREAM 2000, with the ports configured in Silent Raw mode.
