flow control setting.
The
INHIBIT DIRECT MODE
setting allows the administrator to turn off port
buffering while a user is connected to the device and is in direct mode. The
device port buffer still collects data while not in direct mode when this setting is
active. It may be desirable to disable direct mode buffering so sensitive data is
not viewable by other users, but alert and panic messages from the attached
device are still stored when nobody is connected. This setting is disabled by
default, so buffer data is collected both in and out of direct mode.
A list of device port names and their corresponding port number may be
displayed by using the
LISTDEVICES
command.

Network
Command
The
NETWORK
command will define the primary and secondary configuration for
the ConsoleServer network interface. The primary configuration will define the
network port’s IP address, local subnet mask, and default gateway. The
secondary configuration allows the administrator to define a routing path to reach
a specific destination network via an alternate gateway that has a better route to
that destination network. The network administrator for the ConsoleServer 800
will determine if it is necessary to use this feature. If the secondary configuration
will not be used, all fields for the secondary configuration should be set to
255.255.255.255 (which is the default setting).
The
NETWORK
command will either display the network settings of the network
interface or change those settings depending on which command qualifier is
used.

When used by itself, the

assigned to the network port. The IP address, subnet mask, default gateway,
secondary route, and bootp settings are displayed.
