Setting the Terminal Port Baud Parameter
To change the baud setting of the terminal port from
the Administration Console, follow these steps:
1 From the top level of the Administration Console,
enter:
system serialPort terminalSpeed
2 At the prompt, enter the baud setting for the terminal
port. The system supports these baud settings:
19200, 9600, 4800, 2400, and 1200.
After you change the baud setting, you see this
message:
Changing the baud rate may cause a loss of
communication since you are currently connected
via the serial port.
Are you sure you want to change the baud rate?
(y/n):
3 Enter y (for yes) or n (for no) at the prompt.
If you enter
y, the baud setting is changed
immediately and you can no longer communicate on
the serial port until you adjust the baud setting of
your terminal or terminal emulator to match. If you
enter
n, the baud setting does not change and you
return to the previous menu.
Modem Setup
You can set up your system for access through an
external modem that is attached to the system
processor’s modem port. To do this, you must first set
the baud setting of the modem port (if necessary),
and then attach and configure your external modem.
Some modem vendors disable the autoanswer
parameter by default. Verify that your modem’s
autoanswer parameter is not disabled. Consult your
modem’s documentation for information on setting
this parameter.
