Saving and Applying Changes

In the web interface, you can save and apply configuration changes in two ways. With the one-step method, you choose “Save & apply” and changes are saved and applied (take effect) immediately. With the two-step method, you choose “Save to flash,” which immediately saves changes but the changes do not take effect until you choose Apply changes. The following topics describe how to do each of these operations.

One Step: Save and Apply Changes

To save and apply changes immediately, choose the Save & apply button.

Two-Step: Save to Flash and then Apply Changes

To save multiple changes but apply changes once, do the following:

Choose the Save to flash button.

When you finish changing the configuration, choose the Apply changes link which is located on the left navigation menu (or the Save & apply button at the bottom of the page.)

Automatic Device Recognition

This feature allows the Digi CM to automatically detect and recognize attached devices. The Digi CM sends down a probe string, “Enter”, by default then analyzes the response. It then displays the detected OS, device and port number like:

CISCO.Router.port3

Sun.nemo.port5

To enable Automatic Device Recognition:

1.Serial Port > Configuration > Select the port number or All.

2.Port title

Automatic Detection - Enable

Use detected port title - Enable

Probe String - \x0D (means <Enter>)

Device detection method - Active

Detection initiation - periodically

Detection delay - every 5 minutes

3.Click Save & apply.
