To confi gure serial console port settings:
Issue a Port Set command. You may specify settings for one or all ports.
PORT [<port>|ALL] SET TD=CONSOLE [NAME=<name>]
[BAUD=<baud>] [SIZE=<size>] [PARITY=<parity>] [STOP=<stop_bits>]
[FLOW=<fl ow_ctrl>] [TIMEOUT=<time-out] [SOCKET=<socket>]
[CHAR=^<cli_char>] [TOGGLE=NONE|DTR] [POWER=<signal>]
To confi gure SPC ports and settings:
Issue a Port Set command with the TD=SPC parameter.
PORT <port> SET TD=SPC
When a port is configured as an SPC, you cannot change the serial port
settings. However, you can use the SPC command to change certain
configuration values for the SPC and its 8 or 16 individual sockets.
SPC <port>|ALL [MINLOAD=<amps>] [MAXLOAD=<amps>]
[SOCKET <socket>|ALL] [WAKE=ON|OFF] [ONMIN=<time>]
[OFFmin=<time>]
For more information, see Port Set command and SPC Command in Chapter 5.
When you specify TD=SPC, you may configure the SPC and control its
individual sockets using DSView. Existing users who already have an SPC and
use its native command interfaces should specify TD=Console.
To display serial port settings:
Issue a Show Port command.
SHOW PORT [<port>|ALL|NAMES]
When you request information about a console port, the display includes
configuration information, current power status (if power status monitoring
has been enabled), plus transmit, receive and error counts. When you request
information about a single console port and a user is currently accessing
that port, the display also includes the username, access rights and other
information about the current session.
When you request information about a single SPC port, the display includes
information configured with the SPC command. A Show Port All command
will indicate which ports are SPC ports.
When you request information about port names, the display includes the port
numbers and names. If a port’s name has not been changed with a Port Set
command, the logical name is displayed.
For more information, see Show Port command in Chapter 5.
