Before proceeding with further serial port configuration, you should •
connect the ports to the serial devices they will be controlling, and
ensure they have matching settings
Please Note that the serial ports are all factory set to RS232 9600 baud,
no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and Console Server Mode.
The baud rate can be changed to 2400 – 230400 baud using the man-
agement console. Lower baud rates (50, 75, 110, 134, 150, 200, 300,
600, 1200, 1800 baud) can be configured from the command line.
Console Server Mode
Select Console Server Mode to enable remote management access to
the serial console that is attached to this serial port:
Logging Level - specifies the level of information to be logged and
monitored
Telnet - With the Telnet service enabled on the ECS0016, a Telnet
client on a User or Administrator’s PC/workstation can connect to a serial
device attached to this serial port on the gateway. The Telnet communica-
tions are unencrypted, so this protocol is generally recommended only for
local connections.
