1.0 Product Description The ConsoleServer 3200 (also referred to as the CS 3200) is one of the most versatile network administration tools available today, allowing as many as 17 simultaneous users to access up to 32 connected devices via the RS-232C serial protocol. Pull-down menus help users navigate through all the functions of the ConsoleServer 3200, creating an easy-to-use way to access system resources.
1.
2.0 System Overview 2.1 Connect Up to Thirty-two RS-232C Compatible Ports The ConsoleServer 3200 is plug-compatible with any RS-232C device. These may be a variety of network servers, routers, or any other LAN/WAN computers on the network. Connections are made by routing the device signals through the switch cards to the appropriate user interface port. 2.2 64K FIFO Audit Trail The ConsoleServer 3200 stores the equivalent of approximately 100 screens worth of data per device port in a FIFO buffer.
The modem card connects directly to an ordinary phone jack (RJ11) to interface with a telephone network. The sys admin may designate a modem initialization string, or may use the default modem initialization string, which allows auto-answering on one ring.
3.0 System Components Each ConsoleServer 3200 consists of three major components: chassis, device cards, and access cards. 3.1 Chassis The chassis contains a front-panel LCD for quick system information that is available at all times. Two front panel buttons allow display selection and paging through displays (see section 10.0 for more information). The second component of the chassis is the power supply module.
address. The network card must be connected to a network that uses TCP/IP. Devices connected to the network card must be at 10 Mbits (no auto–negotiation) on 10-base T. 3.3.3 Modem Card The modem card allows dial-in access to the ConsoleServer 3200 and the servers attached to its device ports. The modem card supports baud rates up to 38.4 kbps, and will auto-detect the actual connection speed. Only one user at a time may access through the modem card, and only one modem card may be installed per unit.
4.0 Installation Instructions 4.1 Items in the Shipping Container a) ConsoleServer 3200 user manual b) User and Sys Admin Quick Reference Cards c) AC power cord d) Cable kit part number 200.0135 (four rubber feet included) e) ConsoleServer 3200 chassis with installed cards Additional adapters and cables may also be included in the shipping container if ordered. Large cable and adapter orders are usually shipped in separate containers. 4.
the unit. Alternate power cords are available for all national connector standards. The standard AC power module has dual inputs. The DC power module operates on –48 VDC, with 1.5 A maximum operating current, and 5 A maximum surge current. DC power must be externally protected against overcurrent. Each DC power module features dual power inputs. See Appendix D for further specifications and instructions regarding DC power requirements and installation. 4.
4. Firmly seat the adapter in the serial port. Screw down the adapter to secure it to the serial port. 5. Insert one end of the serial cable into the adapter until a click is heard. Insert the other end of the serial cable into port "A" of the control card, again until a click is heard.
5.0 Connecting Equipment to the ConsoleServer 3200 When connecting devices to the ConsoleServer 3200, be sure to use Lightwave Communications cables and adapters to ensure the proper transmission of data signals. If a device has an RJ45 serial port, use the manufacturer's cable included with the equipment to convert the RJ45 serial connector to a DB9 or DB25 connector, and then use a Lightwave Communications adapter to convert back to RJ45 to attach to the device port.
5.2 Network Card The network card runs at 10 Mbits, half-duplex, with no auto-negotiation. The device used to connect the ConsoleServer to the network (i.e., a hub or switch) must support this configuration. It is essential that the network device does not attempt autonegotiation; the ConsoleServer network card does not support this and will fail to establish a functioning link if auto-negotiation is used. Materials: • ConsoleServer 3200 network port • network point-of-connection (i.e.
5.4 Device Card The ConsoleServer 3200 is designed so that the default device port communications settings will match the communications settings of most Sun® server and workstation console ports (9600 baud, 8 data bits, no parity, one stop bit). Other equipment types (i.e., Cisco®) frequently use similar communications settings; check the manuals included with the equipment for the correct settings. The table below lists the default serial port communications settings for the ConsoleServer 3200.

Turn on power to the terminal or computer. If using a computer, start the desired communication program. The terminal or communications program used must be in VT100 emulation mode 2. Ensure that the communications settings are correct.
6.8.1 LINESPERPAGE Command sys admin>>LINESPERPAGE Lines per page set to 22 sys admin>LINESPERPAGE 10 Lines per page set to 10 sys admin>> The LINESPERPAGE command allows the sys admin to change the number of lines displayed per terminal page on the control card port before the MORE prompt is displayed. The number of lines to display per page is entered after the command. Entering the command without a number following will display the current amount of lines displayed per page.
The BREAK command allows the sys admin to disconnect a user from the device port to which they were connected if they are in monitor, listen, or direct mode. The user is still logged in after the connection is broken, but there is no longer any connection between the terminal port and the device port. The sys admin must specify the terminal port number (as listed with the CONNECTIONS command) of the connection to be severed when using the BREAK command.
The TELNETTIMEOUT command allows the sys admin to define the amount of time that a network card may have an idle telnet session before breaking the network connection. A telnet session is considered to be idle if no characters are sent from the user’s terminal. Once the time limit has been reached, the user will be logged out and the network connection will be broken. The connection will be broken if there is no activity at any login level (from logged out up to direct mode).
the ConsoleServer 3200 to restore the system settings. It is not possible to use the BACKUP and RESTORE commands from a network sys admin session. Before beginning either the backup or restore processes, make sure that there are no users logged in to the ConsoleServer 3200 by using the CONNECTIONS command. If there are any users logged in, notify them to log out immediately or forcibly log them out using the FORCELOGOUT command.
To change the system prompt to the default (LCI3200>), use the command PROMPT /DEFAULT. 6.12 Updating the ConsoleServer 3200 Software As new features are added to the ConsoleServer 3200, new versions of the system software will become available. The sys admin may enter the ConsoleServer 3200 update mode using the command LCIUPDATE (which may never be abbreviated).
7.0 User Access and Interface 7.1 Terminal Card Each terminal card has four (4) RJ45 connector ports to which a terminal may be attached, giving a maximum of 16 physically connected terminals per ConsoleServer 3200 unit. The terminal card may be installed in slots B, C, D, or E.
At power-up, the network card does not respond to network connect requests until the control card has completed its system initialization. Once the power-up sequence is complete, the network card obtains its network parameters from the control card, and is ready to accept connections over the network. It is important to note that the network card does not retain its network parameters (i.e., IP address, subnet mask, gateway address) if moved from one card slot to another.

The prompt will change to reflect the level in which the user is, and in monitor mode, will also indicate which server is selected. The help screens also change according to the user's login level. There are separate help screens for a logged out user, a logged in user, and a user in monitor (a.k.a. device) mode.
