8: Devices Note: Check the serial device equipment settings and documentation for the proper settings. The device port and the attached serial device must have the same settings. Baud Data Bits Stop Bits Parity Enable Logins Flow Control Max Direct Connects Show Lines on Connecting Enables the speed (baud rate) with which the device port exchanges data with the attached serial device. From the drop-down list, select the baud rate. Most devices use 9600 for the administration port, so the device port defaults to this value. Check the equipment settings and documentation for the proper baud rate. Enables the number of data bits used to transmit a character. From the drop-down list, select the number of data bits. The default is 8 data bits. Enables the number of stop bits used to indicate that a byte of data has been transmitted. From the drop-down list, select the number of stop bits. The default is 1. Select the parity for detecting simple, single-bit errors from the drop-down list. The default is none. Displays a login prompt and authenticates users for serial devices connected to the device port. Successfully authenticated users are logged into the command line interface. The default is disabled and is the correct setting if the device port is the endpoint for a connection. Enables the method to prevent buffer overflow and loss of data. The available methods include none, xon/xoff (software), and RTS/CTS (hardware). The default is none. Enables the maximum number of simultaneous connections for a device port from 1 to 10. The default is 1. Enables a number of lines of buffered data when the serial port connects to the SLC console manager. When enabled, the user can use the connect direct command using CLI or connect directly to the port using Telnet or SSH. The output is up to 24 lines. For example, an SLC device issues a connect direct device 1 command to connect port 1 to a Linux server. Then the SLC console manager user gets a directory with the ls command exits the connection. When the SLC device user issues another direct connect device 1", the output of the ls command (or some portion of it) is output again, so the user can know what state the server was left in. Hardware Signal Triggers Check DSR on Connect Disconnect on DSR If this setting is enabled, the device port only establishes a connection if DSR (Data Set Ready) is in an asserted state. DSR should already be in an asserted state, not in transition, when a connection attempt is made. Disabled by default unless dialin, dial-out, or dial-back is enabled for the device port. If a connection to a device port is currently in session, and the DSR signal transitions to a de-asserted state, the connection disconnects immediately. Disabled is the default unless dial-in, dial-out, or dial-back is enabled for the device port. SLC™ Console Manager User Guide 87
