   Value	Description
   Telnet Port	(Optional) TCP port number used for incoming Telnet connections. The default is 23, which allows the server to be used from any client (default). Change this number only if there is another Telnet server on the same server.
   Telnet Logon Timeout	(Optional) Specifies the amount of time in deciseconds before a connection times out when a Telnet session is established and the user does not log on. The default is 600 deciseconds.  The check box must be selected to enable this feature (enabled by default). If checked, the value specified in the Timeout (Deciseconds) text box is copied to VME and will be implemented at boot time. To disable the timeout value, you can do either of the following: select the check box and set the Timeout value to 0. use the logon-timeout command to set the value to 0. If unchecked, the Timeout value is not updated in the VME at boot time (the current value remains unchanged). Note: Line 0 does not have a logon timeout.
   Disable Telnet	Selecting this check box disables the standard Telnet server.
   Remove all Nailed Telnets	Removes all nailed telnet port/PIB associations.
   Log IAC Event Messages	Enables or disables logging of Interpret As Command (IAC) event messages. These messages are logged when the system fails to interpret command data from telnet.
   ODBC Port	Specifies the port number for ODBC connections. The default value is 1603.
   Inactivity Timeout	Specifies the time of inactivity (in seconds) before the ODBC connection is timed out. The check box must be selected to enable this feature.
   Log Tracing Messages	Specifies how often (in seconds) trace information is flushed from the buffer and written to the specified trace file. The default time period is 60 seconds and the default trace file name is d3odbcsv.log. The check box must be selected to enable this feature.
   RPC Name Service	Enables and disables the use of the Windows RPC Name Service which allows a server application to publicly offer an interface in the name-service database for use by any client application. This value is always set to disabled. Note that if the RPC name service is disabled, then non-mds VME servers logged on as the local system from a different domain will not start.
   Inactivity Timeout	Specifies the time of inactivity (in seconds) before the connection between the client and the remote server is timed out. The check box must be selected to enable this feature.
