Serial Ports

Serial-to-Serial Function

The serial-to-serial function allows you to use a simple terminal device (video display and keyboard) to access and control any device connected to the Console Server on ports 1 through 15. You may also use an external terminal converter, like the Belkin F1D084Eea, to connect your Console Server to a KVM switch and consolidate the control.

Installation

To install, connect your terminal device to port 16 of the Console Server. This will allow you to access a serial device connected to ports 1 through 15 only.

Enable and Configure Serial-to-Serial

To configure the serial-to-serial function:

1.Enter VT-100 console mode (see the “Assigning IP from the Console Port—VT-100 (Console, Telnet, SSH)” section for details) to display the window screen below.

2.Go to the tier 2 menu item [S-to-S] “Serial-to-Serial port operation”, and hit the SPACE bar to select “ENABLE”. Confirm the change to auto-reboot the system.

3.Now disconnect from the local console and start a new terminal session by connecting to port 16.

4.After the reboot (will take about a minute), the screen on the next page will appear. Configure each configuration setting. Type in the value for “Inactivity timeout” and press the SPACE bar to select the setting for the other items.
