Managing the Module
You can use the COM Port Configuration window to set the following operating
parameters:
COM Port Admin
Use this field to administratively enable or disable the COM port.
COM Port Function
Use this field to select the function for which you wish to use the COM port:
LM
Local Management: select this option if you wish to connect a terminal
to the COM port from which to run Local Management.
UPS
Select this option if you wish to connect an uninterruptable power
supply (UPS) to the COM Port. Note that if you select this option, an
additional option — UPS — will appear on the Device menu when you
exit and re-enter device management; use the resulting window to
configure specific UPS settings.
SLIP
Select this option to use the COM port as a SLIP connection for
out-of-band SNMP management via direct connection to a serial port on
your network management workstation. Note that when you configure
the port as a SLIP connection, you must select the desired baud rate in
the Speed Selection field described below.
PPP
Select this option to use the COM port as a PPP connection for
out-of-band SNMP management via direct connection to a serial port on
your network management workstation. Note that when you configure
the port as a PPP connection, you must select the desired baud rate in
the
Speed Selection
field,
page 2-50
.
Speed Selection
If you have configured the selected port as a SLIP or PPP connection, you must select the
appropriate baud rate: 2400, 4800, 9600, or 19,200. Note that this field will default to
Auto-Baud and become unselectable when the COM Port Function is set to LM or UPS.
NOTE
Current SmartSwitch 6000 or Matrix E7 firmware versions support only Local
Management and UPS via the COM ports; future versions will add SLIP and PPP
support. You will receive a SET failed message if you attempt to configure the COM port
for SLIP or PPP support.
TIP
If the COM port you wish to configure is currently set to LM or UPS, the Speed Selection
field will be unavailable until the COM Port Function is set to SLIP or PPP and that
change is applied. Once available, the Speed Selection field will default to the last known
speed setting; use the down arrow to change this setting if necessary, then click the Apply
button again to complete the configuration.
