This page allows you to configure the
COM1 serial port located at the rear of
the ServSwitch CX with IP.
Server IP / Client IP
When a user dials into the ServSwitch
CX with IP via a modem or ISDN
adapter, the ServSwitch CX with IP sets
up a temporary two-device network
using PPP (Point to Point Protocol).
For this purpose, both devices must
have ‘dummy’ IP addresses so that
they can communicate correctly. These
two addresses can be almost anything
expressed in the quad octet format (i.e. 192.168.3.1.). However, it is advisable
not to make them the same as the real IP addresses used by either the remote
system or the ServSwitch CX.
Baud Rate
This option configures the speed of the serial connection between the
ServSwitch CX with IP and a connected modem or ISDN terminal adapter. The
default setting is 115200. The other communication settings are fixed as: No
parity, 8 bit word, 1 stop bit.
Init String
The codes entered here are used to prepare the connected modem or ISDN
terminal adapter for use with the ServSwitch CX with IP. The default code
is a Hayes-compatible string to configure auto answer mode and would be
understood by the vast majority of modem/ISDN devices. The code is sent when
the ServSwitch CX with IP is first switched on or whenever the Initialize button is
clicked.
Initialize Port
When selected, this option sends the characters entered in the ‘Init string’ field
to the connected modem or ISDN terminal adapter.
Restore Defaults
When selected, this option resets the ‘Baud rate’ and ‘Init string’ values to their
original default settings.

This option allows you to completely reset the IP portion of the ServSwitch CX
with IP unit.
WARNING: This process will remove all network and modem/ISDN settings
and return the unit to use its original state. A complete reconfiguration will be
required before the IP features of the unit can be used.
To reset the ServSwitch CX with IP configuration
1 With the Reset Configuration option highlighted, press .
2 Access the Configure IP port option to view the initial IP configuration
screens. See Initial IP configuration for details.
