Selection Criteria
Baud Rate (bps) - Select the default baud rate for the serial port connection from the pull-down
menu. You may choose from 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200 baud. The
factory default is 9600 baud.
Configurable Data
Serial Port Login Timeout (minutes) - Specify how many minutes of inactivity should occur on a
serial port connection before the switch closes the connection. Enter a number between 0 and 160:
the factory default is 5. Entering 0 disables the timeout.
Password Threshold - When the logon attempt threshold is reached on the console port, the system
interface becomes silent for a specified amount of time before allowing the next logon attempt. (Use
the silent time command to set this interval.) When this threshold is reached for Telnet, the Telnet
logon interface closes. The default value is 3.
Silent Time (Sec) - Use this command to set the amount of time the management console is
inaccessible after the number of unsuccessful logon attempts exceeds the threshold set by the
password threshold command. The default value is 0.
Non-Configurable Data
Character Size (bits) - The number of bits in a character. This is always 8.
Flow Control - Whether hardware flow control is enabled or disabled. It is always disabled.
Stop Bits - The number of stop bits per character. It is always 1.
Parity - The parity method used on the serial port. It is always None.
Command Buttons
Submit - Update the switch with the values on the screen. If you want the switch to retain the new
values across a power cycle you must perform a save.
