General Configuration Screen
Module Configuration Menu Screens 5-7
Com
(Toggle)
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 5.2.10.
Application
(Toggle)
Set the application that the COM port will support. The field toggles
between LM (Local Management) and UPS (Uninterruptible Power
Supply). The default is LM.
The UPS setting allows the COM port to be used to monitor an
American Power Conversion (APC) Uninterruptible Power Supply
(UPS).
The baud rate setting for LM is automatically sensed. For UPS, the
baud rate is automatically set to 2400.
For details about how to configure the COM port for various
applications, refer to Section 5.2.10.
Clear NVRAM
(Toggle)
Reset NVRAM to the factory default settings. All user-entered
parameters, such as IP address and Community Names, are then
replaced with the switch module default configuration settings. For
details, refer to Section 5.2.11.
IP Fragmentation
(Toggle)
Enable or disable IP Fragmentation. The default setting for this field is
ENABLED.
If the switch module is to be bridged to an FDDI ring using an
HSIM-F6, IP Fragmentation should be enabled. If IP Fragmentation is
disabled, all FDDI frames that exceed the maximum Ethernet frame
size are discarded if they are destined for a small frame size port, such
as Ethernet, WAN, Gigabit Ethernet, and ATM (at the time of this
printing). Even if IP Fragmentation is disabled, large frames will still
be forwarded out the ports if necessary. Check the release notes for
changes. For details on enabling IP Fragmentation, refer to
Section 5.2.12.
WebView
(Toggle)
Enable or disable WebView to configure or manage the switch via the
HTTP agent. The default setting is ENABLED.
Telnet
(Toggle)
Enable or disable the ability to Telnet to the switch to access Local
Management. The default setting is ENABLED.
