9: Device Ports The administrator and users with local user rights may assign individual port permissions to local users. The administrator and users with remote authentication rights assign port access to users authenticated by NIS, RADIUS, LDAP, Kerberos and TACACS+. I/O Modules The SLC module port configuration can be changed by adding or replacing I/O modules in the I/O module bays. Any changes to the I/O modules must be done while the SLC unit is powered off. The following I/O module configurations are supported (Bay 1 is the leftmost bay when viewing the back of the SLC 8000 advanced console manager where the device ports are located): Model SLC 8008 SLC 8016 SLC 8024 SLC 8032 SLC 8040 SLC 8048 Table 9-1 Supported I/O Module Configurations Bay 1 8-port module 16-port module 8-port module 16-port module 8-port module 16-port module Bay 2 Empty Empty 16-port module 16-port module 16-port module 16-port module Bay 3 Empty Empty Empty Empty 16-port module 16-port module Note: A 16-port RJ45 module is shown as "RJ45-16" in the About page in the Web interface and the output of the admin version command in the CLI, and a 8-port module is shown as "RJ45-08". A 16-port USB module is shown as "USB-16." For example, I/O Module Type(s): RJ45-08, RJ45-16, and RJ45-16 indicate that the SLC unit has an 8-port I/O module in Bay 1, and 16-port modules in Bay 2 and 3. Please note that only the following configurations are available from Lantronix: SLC 8008, SLC 8016, SLC 8032 and SLC 8048 modules. The SLC 8024 and SLC 8040 console managers can only be created by adding 16-port RJ45 modules to an existing SLC 8008 unit. The number of device ports in a SLC 8000 advanced console manager can be expanded by adding 16-port I/O modules in Bay 2 and Bay 3, or by swapping an 8-port I/O module in Bay 1 for a 16-port module. The configurations listed above are the only valid configurations; if any other configuration is detected at boot, the SLC unit will still boot, disable use of the device ports, and provide indications in the boot messages, in the CLI and in the web that the I/O configuration is invalid. When an invalid configuration is corrected by reconfiguring the I/O modules into a valid configuration, after the SLC module is powered up and booted, the valid configuration will be detected and the SLC module ports can be used again. For the SLC 8024 and SLC 8040 modules, with an 8-port I/O module in Bay 1, the device ports will be numbered 1-8 and 17-32 (for the SLC 8024 model) and 1-8 and 17-48 (for the SLC 8040 model). See Figure 9-2 Devices > Device Status on page 183. Restoring a configuration to the SLC 8000 advanced console manager will automatically adjust the number of device ports to reflect the number of ports in the SLC unit the configuration is being restored to. For example, a configuration that is saved on an SLC 8048 unit and restored to an SLC 8016 unit will have the last 32 ports removed from the configuration. Conversely, a configuration that is saved on a SLC 8016 unit and restored to a SLC 8048 unit will have 32 device ports (with factory default settings) added to the configuration.
