Monitor Mode is a command-line interface used for diagnostic purposes.
There are two ways to enter Monitor Mode: locally using the serial port or remotely
via the network.
Note: The MatchPort b/g is based on a standard release of Lantronix's CoBos
operating system. Some CoBos products support both wired and wireless
interfaces. The MatchPort b/g currently supports only wireless. Please ignore
references and settings that deal with a wired Ethernet interface.
Entering Monitor Mode via the Serial Port
To enter Monitor Mode locally:
1. Follow the same steps used for setting the serial configuration parameters (see
Serial Port Access on page 36).
2. Instead of typing three x keys, however:
a) Type zzz to enter Monitor Mode with network connections.
b) Type yyy to enter Monitor Mode without network connections.
A 0> prompt indicates that you have successfully entered Monitor Mode.
Entering Monitor Mode via the Network Port
To enter Monitor Mode using a Telnet connection:
1. Establish a Telnet session to the configuration port (9999).
2. When the Press Enter to go into Setup Mode prompt displays, type M (upper
case).
A 0> prompt indicates that you have successfully entered Monitor Mode.
