Changing the Console Serial Port Settings
You can change the communications settings for the serial port
connection located on the front panel of the layer 3 supervisor
module from the Web Agent. The switch’s console port is initially
configured as a TTY Console to support a TTY connection. The layer
2 and layer 3 supervisor modules allow you to reconfigure the
console serial port as a PPP Console to support a dial-in PPP
connection using a modem.
* Note: If you reconfigure the serial port as a PPP console, you
can only change the switch’s baud rate and flow control
parameters. The flow control parameters are limited to
None or Xon/Xoff.
