Table 8.5: Enabled Protocols for Each Security Profile
The first step in configuring your console server is to define a security profile. One of the
following situations is applicable when you boot up the console server.
• The console server is starting for the first time or after a reset to factory default parameters.
In this situation when you boot up your console server and log in as an administrator
to the web manager, a security warning dialog box appears. The web manager is
redirected to Step1: Security Profile in the Wizard mode. Further navigation to other
sections of the web manager is not possible without selecting or configuring a security
profile. Once you select or configure a security profile and save the changes, the
console server restarts.
• The console server firmware is upgraded and the system is restarting with the new
firmware.
In this situation the console server was already in use and certain configuration
parameters were saved in the flash memory. In this case the console server
automatically retrieves the Custom Security Profile parameters saved in the flash
memory and behaves as it was a normalreboot.
• The console server is restarting normally.
In this situation the system detects the pre-defined security profile. You can continue
working in the web manager.
Serial port settings and security profiles
All serial ports on the console server when shipped from the factory are disabled by default.
The administrator can enable ports individually or collectively and assign specific users to
individual ports.
The following situations apply to serial ports when you modify or change a security profile.
