Using the Hub Setup Port

The hub setup port allows you to set parameters when the hub is initially installed.

Once the hub is configured, you can perform routine network management tasks

over the network and the setup port is no longer needed.

The hub setup port supports three modes:

• Installation Menu

• Redirect

• Event Display

These modes assume only ANSI/ASCII or PC-based terminal interface. Cursor con-

trol, screen management escape sequences, or flow control are not supported. The

setup console may be attached to any ASCII device, including hardcopy terminals

and printers.

Connecting a Terminal to the Hub Setup Port

To connect a terminal to the hub setup port, ensure that the terminal setup parame-

ters shown in Table 3–4 are in effect:
