Minicom Advanced Systems 5UM20114 manual External Power Option for Serial port

SMART CAT5 SWITCH 16 IP.

Modem Server IP address – This address is used only when connecting to Smart 16 IP via a modem. When you dial into the Smart 16 IP the client computer will receive a Modem Client IP address from the Smart 16 IP. Open the Web browser and type Modem server IP address to login to the Smart 16 IP.

The Client IP (see paragraph below) must be in the same class C subnet as the server IP. This subnet should not conflict with the Ethernet subnet on the client side and with the Ethernet subnet on Smart 16 IP Network side.

Modem Client IP address - This address is assigned to your console computer during the PPP handshake. Since it is a point-to-point IP connection virtually every IP address is possible but ensure, it is not interfering with the IP settings of Smart 16 IP and your console computer. The default value will work in most cases.

IPMI over Serial - Check to use this serial port for IPMI 1.5 over serial. See page 47 for more information.

Passthrough access to serial port via Telnet - Connect an arbitrary device to the serial port and access it (assuming it provides terminal support) via telnet. Select the appropriate options for the serial port and use the Telnet Console (see page

42)or a standard telnet client to connect to Smart 16 IP. For more information, see page 19.
