Chapter 5 Initial Configuration Configuring Modem Connections Send documentation comments to [email protected] Step 6 Step 7 Command switch(config-com1)# parity none switch(config-com1)# no flowcontrol hardware Description Configures the parity for the COM1 connection. The default is no parity and the valid values are even or odd parity. Disables hardware flow control. By default, hardware flow control is enabled on all switches in the Cisco 9000 Family. When enabled, this option is useful in protecting data loss at higher baud rates. Note This option is only available through the COM1 port. Verifying COM1 Port Settings Use the show line com1 command to verify the configured COM1 settings. This command also displays problems that may have occurred along with the other registration statistics. The following example displays output from an MDS switch with a Supervisor-1 module: switch# show line com1 line Aux: Speed: 9600 bauds Databits: 8 bits per byte Stopbits: 1 bit(s) Parity: none Modem In: Enable Modem Init-String - default : ATQ0V1H0S0=1\015 Statistics: tx:17 rx:0 Register Bits:RTS|DTR The following example displays output from an MDS switch with a Supervisor-2 module: switch# show line com1 line Aux: Speed: 9600 bauds Databits: 8 bits per byte Stopbits: 1 bit(s) Parity: none Modem In: Enable Modem Init-String - default : ATE0Q0V1&D0&C0S0=1\015 Statistics: tx:17 rx:0 Register Bits:RTS|DTR Configuring Modem Connections Modems can only be configured if you are connected to the console or COM1 ports. A modem connection to a switch in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family does not affect switch functionality. Note If you plan on connecting a modem to the console port or the COM1 port of a switch in the Cisco MDS 9000 Family, refer to the Cisco MDS 9500 Series Hardware Installation Guide or the Cisco MDS 9200 Series Hardware Installation Guide. COM1 ports are not available on switches in the Cisco MDS 9100 Series. Refer to the Cisco MDS 9100 Series Hardware Installation Guide.
