8 You can also save your changes in real time to the switch’s running memory by entering commit
system at the boot prompt:
Boot > commit system
Caution. There are two important things to consider when using the commit system command to save
serial connection changes:
• Output to the terminal may become illegible due to incompatible serial connection settings between the
switch and the terminal emulation software.
• If you use the commit system command only, changes will not be saved to the switch’s boot.params
file and will be lost if the switch is rebooted. To save changes to the boot.params file, refer to step 7.
9 Return to the CLI prompt by entering exit at the boot prompt.
Configuring X-ON/X-OFF Protocol
By default, X-ON/X-OFF protocol is enabled on the console port. To enable and disable the X-ON/X-OFF
protocol on a console port that you are logged into use the session xon-xoff command by entering session
xon-xoff followed by either enable or disable.
For example, to disable X-ON/X-OFF on a console port enter:
-> session xon-xoff disable
Note. To enable or disable the X-ON/X-OFF protocol on the secondary CMM you must log into the
secondary CMM and then execute the session xon-xoff command.
