Step 5: Data Buffering
Selecting Step 5: Data Buffering displays a form to allow logging the console data to a data
buffer file either locally in the console server or remotely to an external storage source such as
an NFS server or Syslog server. Once Enable Data Buffering is selected, the form displays a
number of fields. The displayed fields depends on whether selected destination is local or
remote.
The values set in this form apply to all serial ports. Data buffering allows a site to save a record
of all communication during a serial port connection session. You can set up data buffer files to
be stored either in local files on the console server’s Flash memory or on the hard disk of an
external server, such as an NFS or Syslog server.
