The fields that can be configured are described below:
Parameter Description
Baud Rate
This field specifies the baud rate for the serial port on the Switch. There are four possible
baud rates to choose from, 9600, 19200, 38400 and 115200. For a connection to the Switch
using the CLI interface, the baud rate must be set to 115200, which is the default setting.
Auto Logout
Select the logout time used for the console interface. This automatically logs the user out after
an idle period of time, as defined. Choose from the following options: 2 Minutes, 5 Minutes, 10
Minutes, 15 Minutes or Never. The default setting is 10 minutes.
Click Apply to implement changes made.
NOTE: If a user configures the serial port’s baud rate, the baud rate will take effect and save
immediately. Baud rate settings will not change even if the user resets or reboots the Switch. The
Baud rate will only change when the user configures it again. The serial port’s baud rate setting is
not stored in the Switch’s configuration file. Resetting the Switch will not restore the baud rate to
the default setting.
