Saving and Applying Changes

In the web interface, you can save and apply configuration changes in two
ways. With the one-step method, you choose “

Save & apply

” and changes are

saved and applied (take effect) immediately. With the two-step method, you
choose “

Save to flash

,” which immediately saves changes but the changes do

not take effect until you choose Apply changes. The following topics describe
how to do each of these operations.

One Step: Save and Apply Changes

To save and apply changes immediately, choose the

Save & apply

button.

Two-Step:

Save to Flash

and then Apply Changes

To save multiple changes but apply changes once, do the following:

Choose the

Save to flash

button.

When you finish changing the configuration, choose the Apply changes link
which is located on the left navigation menu (or the

Save & apply

button at the

bottom of the page.)

Automatic Device Recognition

This feature allows the Digi CM to automatically detect and recognize attached
devices. The Digi CM sends down a probe string, “Enter”, by default then
analyzes the response. It then displays the detected OS, device and port
number like:

CISCO.Router.port3

Sun.nemo.port5

To enable Automatic Device Recognition:

1. Serial Port > Configuration > Select the port number or All.
