12.6.11 Set/Define Ports Autobaud
Enables a port to detect the incoming baud rate and change its own to match at login time. Autobaud must
be disabled for Remote and Dynamic port access and for any port offering a service.
Note: When Autobaud is enabled, you may have to press Return twice or more to allow
the port to determine the baud rate.
Restrictions Requires privileged user status.
Errors Autobaud and Autostart cannot be used together. If you try to configure both
options, you will get a message saying that the previously configured option
was disabled.
Parameters PortList/All
Specifies a particular port or group of ports, or all ports. Port numbers should
be separated with commas (for lists) or dashes (for ranges).
Note: In the absence of a PortList or the All parameter, the configuration will affect the
current port only.
Autobaud works for most baud rates when both ends of the line are the same
parity, or when the port is set to 8 bits with no parity and the incoming
connection is 7 bits with even parity. Baud rates must be within 3 “steps” of
each other, 9600 to 38400 will work, but 9600 to 115200 will not.
