5.7.5 Serial management
Serial targets connected to an appliance are assigned a target name and associated with an internal tty serial interface. The
settings for these serial interfaces are split into two locations:
•
Port Configuration - Serial Settings.
These settings govern tty interface communication, speed, parity, flow control and so on.
•
Serial Management - Serial Console Ports.
These settings govern the handling of serial port data within the appliance.
NOTE: To rename a target, see
Serial console ports
Any autosensing port can be used to connect a serial target to the appliance. The autosensing ports support either the
Avocent® or Cisco™ soft pinout modes.
To edit the CAS settings for one or more serial targets:
1.
Click
Targets - Serial Management-Serial Port Targets.
2.
Under the Serial Console Ports tab, click the check box for each port you want to configure.
