Configuring common console user interface settings (optional)
Some common settings configured for a console user interface take effect immediately and can interrupt
the console login session. To save you the trouble of repeated re-logins, use a login method different from
console login to log in to the LB module before you change console user interface settings.
After the configuration is complete, change the terminal settings on the configuration terminal and make
sure they are the same as the settings on the LB module.
To configure common settings for a console user interface:

Command Remarks

view.
user-interface console first-number
[ last-number ]
N/A
3. Set the baud rate.
speed speed-value
By default, the baud rate is 9600
bps.
4. Specify the parity check
mode.
parity { even | mark | none | odd
| space }
The default setting is none, namely,
no parity check.
5. Specify the number of stop
bits.
stopbits { 1 | 1.5 | 2 }
The default is 1.
Stop bits indicate the end of a
character. The more the stop bits, the
slower the transmission.
6. Specify the number of data
bits in each character.
databits { 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 }
The default is 8.
The setting depends on the character
coding type. For example, you can
set it to 7 if standard ASCII
characters are to be sent, and set it
to 8 if extended ASCII characters
are to be sent.
7. Define the shortcut key for
starting a terminal session.
activation-key character
By default, you press Enter to start
the terminal session.
8. Define a shortcut key for
terminating tasks.
escape-key { default | character }
By default, pressing Ctrl+C
terminates a task.
9. Specify the terminal display
type.
terminal type { ansi | vt100 }
By default, the terminal display type
is ANSI.
The LB module supports two types of
terminal display: ANSI and VT100.
HP recommends setting the display
type of both the LB module and the
terminal to VT100. If the LB module
and the client use different display
types (for example, HyperTerminal
or Telnet terminal) or both are set to
ANSI, when the total number of
characters of the currently edited
command line exceeds 80, an
anomaly such as cursor corruption
or abnormal display of the terminal
display might occur on the client.
