Accessing the pass-thru module CLI locally 1. Using a null-modem mini-USB to DB-9 RS232 serial cable (not included), connect the pass-thru module management port to a local client device (such as a laptop computer). 2. Open a terminal emulation session and set the following parameters: Parameter Baud rate Data bits Parity Stop bits Flow control Value 9600 8 None 1 None Production mode CLI The CLI provides backward and forward cursor control, backward deletion capability, and a 16-line history buffer. There is no tab "auto-completion" feature, but if there is enough information to determine the command to be used, the interface will accept part of the CLI command. For example, entering sys is enough to enter the system menu.

The port number can be a sequence of numbers (e.g., "1 3 5 15") or, if all ports are to be configured, the "*" option can be used (for example, "/port/auto uplink * off" disables autonegotiation on all uplink ports). • The port/info command displays link configuration and status.

Production mode CLI
The CLI provides backward and forward cursor control, backward deletion capability, and a 16-line
history buffer. There is no tab "auto-completion" feature, but if there is enough information to determine
the command to be used, the interface will accept part of the CLI command. For example, entering

Notes:
The port/auto command uses the following format: "/port/auto <uplink|downlink> <port #>
<on/off>". The port number can be a sequence of numbers (e.g., "1 3 5 15") or, if all ports are to
be configured, the "*" option can be used (for example, "/port/auto uplink * off" disables auto-
negotiation on all uplink ports).
The port/info command displays link configuration and status.
