3Com CS/2500 manual Configuration

4-6 CHAPTER 4: CONFIGURATION

Console Baud Rate	Sets the baud rate for the console port. The default value is 9600. You
	can set the rate to 110, 300, 1200, 2400, or 9600 bps. Console port
	parity is set to none, and number of data bits is set to 8. You cannot
	change these values.
Console Port	Specifies the console port. The choices are 0 through 9; the default is 0.
	Specifying a port as a console port and enabling the Monitor parameter
	disables the port for use with Connection Service.
Continuous Self-Test	Disabling continuous self-test, the default, causes the self-test
	diagnostics to run only when turning on and resetting. When you set this
	parameter to enable, the diagnostics run continuously, except when the
	server is turned off or in monitor mode.
Auto-Reboot	The values available are “Boot monitor,” “Upload then reboot,” and
	“Reboot only. “ The setting takes effect when errors, or the software
	ReBoot command, require the server to be rebooted.
	“Boot monitor” puts the server into monitor mode so it can be rebooted
	by the user. This setting prevents the communications server from
	rebooting after a crash and allows the network manager to perform a
	memory dump or debugging procedures. You can perform memory
	dumps from a CS/2500 to an RBCS or TFTP/FTP server. You can
	perform memory dumps from a CS/2600 to its internal diskette drive or
	to an RBCS or TFTP/FTP server. For further information, refer to
	“Memory Dump Procedures” on page 6-5.
	“Upload then reboot” automatically dumps the communications server’s
	memory to the RBCS or TFTP/FTP server, then reboots the
	communications server. “Reboot only” (the default) automatically
	reboots the communications server.
Monitor	Specifies whether the port configured as the monitor port is always used
	as a monitor port or only when the server is in monitor mode. The
	default setting is “Disabled”; that is, the port functions as a monitor port
	only when the server is in monitor mode.
