If you change the Baud Rate or Flow Control settings for the switch, you
should make the corresponding changes in your console access device. Oth-
erwise, you may lose connectivity between the switch and your terminal
emulator due to differences between the terminal and switch settings for these
two parameters.
All console parameter changes except
events
require that you save the config-
uration with
write memory
and then execute
boot
before the new console
configuration will take effect.
For example, to use one command to configure the switch with the following:
■
VT100 operation
■
19,200 baud
■
No flow control
■
10-minute inactivity time
■
Critical log events
you would use the following command sequence:

N o t e
When using redundant management, console settings, such as mode, flow-
control and baud-rate, are the same on both management modules. There
cannot be individual settings for each management module.
The switch implements the Event Log change immediately. The switch implements
the other console changes after executing
write memory
and
reload
.
