SVx41HDI Series Server Remote Control: Instruction Guide

Baud (bps): This is the communication speed for the device, and the setting here must match the setting on the device itself (see below). All common baud rates between 300 and 115,200 bps are supported.

Mode: Sets the character framing scheme that the SVx41HDI will use with the R-Port device. You can choose from the following selections:

8N1: Eight bits, no parity, one stop bit (default and most common)

7N1/701/7E1/7M1/7S1: Seven bits, (none/odd/even/mark/space) parity, one stop bit

8N1/801/8E1/8M1/8S1: Eight bits, (none/odd/even/mark/space) parity, one stop bit

8N2: Eight bits, no parity, two stop bits

Force DCD: Forces the Carrier Detect signal to be active at all times. Normally, DCD becomes active when a new user connects and is dropped when the last user disconnects (a response that is similar to many modems). When active, the device will logout and reset itself if the carrier signal is lost, increasing security. Note that this may not work with all devices and could impair proper operation in some circumstances. The default setting is off.

Console Log: Clicking this link will open a separate Web page that will display the last 200 characters committed to that device’s console log. Note that existing data is overwritten automatically when the 200 character limit is reached.

(Optional, not shown) IPMI: This is an optional feature that requires the purchase of a software upgrade on the SVx41HDI. Refer to Appendix D for more information about purchasing and using the IPMI upgrade. This feature will not appear on the menu if the upgrade is not installed.

You can make as many changes a needed on this menu at one time before applying your changes. Once you are satisfied with the changes you have made, click Commit changes to apply the new settings. Click Refresh at any time to see an updated list of attached R-Port devices.

Advanced Configuration Using the Integrated SSH Shell

In most cases, configuring the SVx41HDI to the same settings as the R-Port devices you are connecting should allow the devices to work with a minimum amount of configuration. However, you can also change the default settings on each R-Port device to fit your preferences and the needs of your application.

If you click the Connect… button next to the device you want to configure, two new windows will appear. The smaller of the two is a login screen; the other is a SSH terminal window. Click the login window and sign in as admin (using the same password as the Web interface) to activate the terminal window. You will see a welcome banner similar to the following:
