Disable Monitor Mode at bootup
This option allows you to disable all entries into Monitor Mode during startup, except
for the ‘xxx’ sequence. This prevents entry using
yyy
,
zzz
,
xx1
, and
yy1
key
sequences (only during the bootup sequence). The default for Monitor Mode at
bootup is
N
(No). (See
Disable Monitor Mode @ bootup (N) ? _
MTU Size
The Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) is the largest physical packet size a network
can transmit for TCP and UDP. Enter between
512
and
1400
bytes. The default is
1400
bytes.
MTU Size: (1400) ? _
Enable alternate MAC
If necessary, enable the alternate MAC address (if specified in the OEM setup
record).
Enable alternate MAC (N) ? _
Ethernet connection type
The XPort Direct allows for the Ethernet speed and duplex to be manually configured.
Enter
0
for auto-negotiation (default). To select the speed and duplex, enter one of
the following:
2
(10Mbit/half duplex),
3
(10Mbit/full duplex),
4
(100Mbit/half duplex), or
5
(100Mbit/full duplex).
Note:
Manually configured speed/duplex settings only work correctly if the peer or
switch also uses a static setting. If the peer is set for auto negotiation, it will not
necessarily result in the correct mode. This is a common Ethernet problem and is not
specific to the XPort Direct.

Security Settings (Option 6)
You can change security settings by means of Telnet or serial connections.
We
recommend that you set security over the dedicated network or over the serial setup
to prevent eavesdropping.
Caution:
Disabling both Telnet Setup and
Port 77FE will prevent users from
accessing the setup menu from the network.
Select

to configure security settings.
