IMPORTANT Do not mix HP and vt100 terminal types at the same time.
Set up the remote serial port parameters as follows:
• MODEM PROTOCOL: Bell or CCITT (CCITT is a European standard; RTS/CTS signaling is used, as well as the Ring
signal. Bell is a U.S. or simple mode).
• BAUD RATES: Input and output data rates are the same; 300, 1200, 2400, 4800, 9600, 38400, 115200 bit/sec.
• FLOW CONTROL: Hardware uses RTS/CTS; Software uses Xon/Xoff.
• TRANSMIT CONFIGURATION STRINGS: Disable this setting whenever the modem being used is not compatible with
the supported modem (MT5634ZBA).
• MODEM PRESENCE: When the modem may not always be connected, set this parameter to “not always connected”.
For example: A modem attached through a switch. In mode “not always connected,” no dial-out functions are allowed:
DIAL-BACK is disabled, and PAGING is not possible.
The MP mirrors the system console to the MP local, remote/modem, and LAN ports. One console output stream is reflected to
all of the connected console users. If several different terminal types are used simultaneously by the users, some users may see
strange results.
Example 5-20 HP-UX
Applications that care about the terminal type (install, SAM, vi, and so on) running on HP-UX use three methods to determine
the terminal type:
1. The application takes the terminal information from the OS. This value is set in the CA command and takes effect for all
MP ports.
2. The $TERM shell environment variable.
3. The application directly queries the terminal (in this case, the write enabled terminal establishes the terminal type).
Make sure that settings #1 and #2 agree with your terminal type.
Certificate Generate
CG: Generate RSA key pair or Self Signed Certificate
This command generates a new RSA key pair and self signed certificate.
Console Log
CL: Console Log—view the history of the Console output
This command displays up to 60 Kilobytes of logged console data (about 60 pages of display in text mode) sent from the
system to the Console path.
Command Mode
CM: Command Mode—enter command mode
This command switches the console terminal from the MP Main Menu to mirrored command interface mode. If the current
mux authority is administrator and the new login is as an operator, the command mux will be denied (remains in MP Main
Menu mode). If a command is in progress, a message will be displayed warning the new user of system status.
