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.
