2E48-27R/2E49-27R User’s Guide 5-19
Screen Lockout Time (Modifiable)
Contains the maximum number of minutes that the Local Management
application displays a device’s screen while awaiting input or action from
a user. For example, if the number 5 is entered in this field, the user has up
to five minutes to respond to each of the specified device’s Local
Management screens.
In this example, after five minutes of “idleness” (no input or action), the
terminal “beeps” five times, the Local Management application
terminates the session, and the display returns to the Local Management
Password screen. To enter a new lockout time, refer to Section 5.7.8.
Device Uptime (Read-Only)
Displays the total time that the device has been operating.
Operational Mode (Selectable)
Allows the user to set the 2E4X-27R so it operates as an IEEE 802.1D
switch (802.1D SWITCHING option), an IEEE 802.1Q switch (802.1Q
SWITCHING option), or as a Cabletron Systems SecureFast switch
(SECURE FAST VLAN option).
In 802.1D SWITCHING mode, the 24 ports located on the front panel,
and each Fast Ethernet Interface Module, and HSIM port(s) are bridged to
each other.
In 802.1Q SWITCHING mode, the 2E4X-27R is able to increase its
switching functionality by creating and maintaining IEEE port based
VLANs.
When the operational mode is set to SECURE FAST VLAN, the
2E4X-27R acts as a SecureFast switch. With the Cabletron Systems
VLAN Manager software, the 2E4X-27R is able to increase its switching
functionality by creating and maintaining Virtual LANs (VLANs).
For details on how to select the Operational Mode, refer to Section 5.7.9.
Com (Toggle)
Allows the user to enable or disable the COM port. The selection toggles
between ENABLED and DISABLED. The default is ENABLED. For
details about setting up the COM port, refer to Section 5.7.10.
