Changing the Console Serial Port Settings

You can use the Web Agent to change the communications settings for the serial port connection on the front panel of the Layer 3 supervisor module.

Initially, the switch’s console port is configured as a TTY Console to support a TTY connection. The Layer 2 and Layer 3 supervisor modules allow you to reconfigure the console serial port as a PPP Console to support a dial-in PPP connection using a modem.

Note: As a PPP console, you can change only the switch’s baud rate and flow control parameters. The flow control parameters are limited to None or Xon/Xoff.
