Configuring Ports
Ports Configuration Menu
Target serial ports are configured from the CLI using the ports menu. In addition to the
description of the physical nature of the ports, other services may also be defined. Those services
are:
• The escape sequence used to disconnect from the port to access the emulator to send
breaks or control multi user functions. (Example: Ctrl a)
• Set the exit string that is to be sent to the target when an idle timeout occurs. By sending
the exit string, the port is disconnected from the DSX and the next user logging into the
port will have to log into the target as well. (Cisco router example: logout)
• Define the addresses to be used for direct port addressing. Direct port addressing can use
an individual IP address per port or a unique TCP Port address per port. Direct Port
Addressing is supported by both Telnet and SSH
See the Direct Port Addressing section for details of this feature.
Ports Config Command
The syntax of the config command is:
config [port <number|range|*>] [name string] [bps value] [parity
<none|even|odd>] [flowcontrol <none|hw|sw>] [detect <true|false>]
[escapemode <none|control>] [escapechar char] [emulation type]
[exitstring <cmd[#delay;]>] [dpaip ipaddress] [telnet port] [ssh port]
The command options are described in Table 24.
Table 24 Port Configuration Command
C OMMAND O PTION D ESCRIPTION
port <number|range|*> Single port or range of ports (1-n or 1,3,4 or * for all ports)
name string Port Name
bps value Port speed (bitrate) in bits-per-second:
(1200|1800|2400|4800|9600|19200|28800|38400|57600|115200)
parity <none|even|odd> Port parity type
flowcontrol
<none|hw|sw> Port flowcontrol type
hw = hardware flow control
sw =X on / X off)
detect <true|false> Enable/Disable detection of port connection
escapemode
<none|control> Use Ctrl-key (escapemode=control) or single key
(escapemode=none) as escape sequence; for example,
Ctrl-] => escapemode=control, escapechar=]
escapechar char Escape character.
emulation type Target Emulation type: VT100|VT220|VT320|ANSI
exitstring
<cmd[#delay;]> Execute exit string when port session closes., for example,
config port 1 exitstring logout (execute logout on exit)
config port 1 exitstring #0 (disable exit string for the port)
dpaip ipaddress IP Address assigned for direct port access
telnet port TCP Port assigned for direct port access via Telnet
ssh port TCP Port assigned for direct port access via ssh
