Command Line
Interface (CLI)
The CLI allows you to configure a limited set of parameters for the
hub. You can access the CLI:
■
Through the console port
■
Over the network
This section has information on accessing the CLI. For more information
on using the CLI, refer to Chapter 6
.
Through the Console
Port
Table E-1
shows the settings for the hub’s console port.
You can access the console port through a direct local connection, or
you can set up a remote connection using a modem.
The terminal or management station (with the terminal emulator)
connected to the console port must use the same settings. By default,
the hub has auto-configuration enabled which will change the hub’s
console port settings to match those of the connected equipment and
automatically detect the baud rate (line speed). The hub can
auto-detect a maximum baud rate of 19200.
You need to use a null modem cable for connecting your terminal or
management station directly to the console port. This should be
available from your supplier. There are a variety of null modem cables
that you can use. For an example of one of these, refer to “Console
Cable” on page A-4
.
If you are using a modem in your setup, you need to use a modem
cable. For an example of one of these, refer to “Modem Cable” on
page A-5
. For information on setting up a connecting to the modem,
refer to the documentation that accompanies the modem.
