User's Guide

You should always configure Communication Settings at the appliance level. When you do, the
configuration is inherited for all the other levels. Then, if you have a level that needs a dierent
configuration, you can apply that profile to that level using the override feature.
For example, if most of the network devices require a console to interface with it, you can configure the
Communication Settings for console interface at the appliance level. Then, if you have a small group of
devices that require you to interface with it through a web UI, you can configure the Communication
Settings for HTTP interface and override the appliance level configuration by selecting another network
level.
Note
The Override settings option is available when you select (highlight) a network level below
the appliance level. Use the Expand button to reveal the other levels.
Note
You may select multiple Communication Settings Profiles by checking more than one
checkbox. If more than one profile is selected, ADSP will attempt to find the best match to
apply starting at the top of the list and working its way down to the bottom of the list.
Click the Apply button to save your changes. Click the Reset button to discard your changes.
