Setting Console/Modem Baud Rates through TCS Hub Commands
Todetect and set baud rates for the console and modem ports for Release 2 switch cards, you use the
TCS hub show and set commands, respectively. These commands interpret and manipulate the
contents of specific fields in the midplane EEPROM used for storing initialized baud rates for the
console and modem ports.
Note Baud rate detection and selection for the console and modem ports apply only to Release 2
switch cards.
The general form of the TCS hub show command for baud rate detection is outlined below:
TCS hub<<A or B>> show <sa | sb> <console | modem> baudrate
where:
TCS hub<<A or B>> Is the TCS hub prompt for the switch card (either switch card A or B, as
appropriate).
show Is the command that operates in conjunction with command arguments to
display the baud rate for the specified switch and the specified port.
<sa | sb> Denotes that the show command is to apply to switch card A or B,
whichever is specified.
<console | modem> Denotes that the show command is to apply to the console port or the
modem port, whichever is specified.
baudrate Displays the baud rate for the specified port.
The general form of the TCS hub set command for baud rate selection is outlined below:
TCS hub<<A or B>> set <sa | sb> <console | modem> baudrate <rate>
where:
TCS hub<<A or B>> Is the TCS hub prompt for the switch card (either switch card A or B, as
appropriate).
set Is the command that operates in conjunction with command arguments to
set the baud rate for the specified switch and the specified port.
<sa | sb> Denotes thatthe set command isto applyto switch cardA orB, whichever
is specified.
<console | modem> Denotes thatthe set command isto applyto theconsole port orthe modem
port, whichever is specified.
baudrate Indicates thatthe set command isto set thebaud ratefor the specifiedport.
<rate> Defines the actual baud rate for the specified port.
The following is the order of precedence of the baud rate for the modem
port on a Release 2 switch card:
2400 (default value)
9600
The following is the order of precedence of the baud rate for the console
port on a Release 2 switch card:
9600 (default value)
19200
