CAUTION: Do not change any of these settings unless you fully
understand what you are doing. Incorrect settings may lock you out
from the unit’s console port, and you may have to contact your
supplier for information on recovering management communication
if you cannot access the unit over the network.
If you want to change the settings but are unsure of the correct
settings to use, refer to the user documentation that accompanies
your terminal or modem.
The fields are:
Console connection Terminal / Modem
Specifies what you are connecting directly to the console port. If you
are connecting to a modem, select ‘Modem’, otherwise leave as
‘Terminal’ (management station).
Port Speed AutoConfig / 1200 / 2400 / 4800 / 9600 / 19,200
Specifies the baud rate of your management station or modem. The
unit can automatically configure its baud rate to work with your
management station or modem. Leave this field as ‘AutoConfig’ if
you require auto-configuration.
Flow Control None / Hardware RTS/CTS
Specifies the flow control option that corresponds to your
management station or modem.
Segment Configuration
This page configures the segments (10Mbps and 100Mbps) and the
segment switch for the unit, as shown in
Figure 16
.
When you connect 10Mbps and 100Mbps equipment to the unit,
the ports are automatically connected to the relevant segment.
The segment switch joins the 10Mbps and 100Mbps segments so
that all of the equipment connected to the segments can
communicate.
By default, the Dual Speed Hub 500 is configured so that all of its
segments are connected, and its switch is in ‘AutoConfigure’ mode.
This ensures that all equipment connected to the stack can
communicate through the stack. Only alter the settings on this page
if you want to alter the operation of the unit’s switch.
