To change the parity value, enter
boot serialparity
,
followed by the desired parity value. Options include none
(default), even, and odd. For example:
Boot > boot serialparity even
4
To change the data bits (i.e., word size) value, enter
boot serialwordsize
, followed by the number of data bits.
Options include 7 and 8 (default). For example:
Boot > boot serialwordsize 7
5
To change the stop bits value, enter
boot
serialstopbits
, followed by the number of stop bits.
Options include 1 (default) and 2. For example:
Boot > boot serialstopbits 2
6
Verify your current changes by entering
show
at the
boot prompt:
Boot > show
Edit buffer contents:
Serial (console) baud
: 19200
Serial (console) parity
: even
Serial (console) stopbits
: 2
Serial (console) wordsize
: 7
(additional table output not shown)

You can save your changes to the
boot.params
file by
entering
commit file
at the boot prompt:
Boot > commit file
When the
commit file
command is used, changes will not
be enabled until after the next switch reboot.
8
You can also save your changes in real time to the
switch’s running memory by entering
commit system
at
the boot prompt:
Boot > commit system
Caution.
There are two important things to consider when
using the
commit system
command to save serial connec-
tion changes:
Output to the terminal may become illegible due to
incompatible serial connection settings between the
switch and the terminal emulation software.
If you use the
commit system
command only, changes
will
not
be saved to the switch’s
boot.params
file and
will be lost if the switch is rebooted. To save changes
to the
boot.params
file, refer to step 7.

exit
at the boot
