Command Remarks
6. 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 bits, the slower
the transmission.
7. Specify the number of data
bits in each character.
databits { 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 }
By default, the number of data bits in
each character 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.
8. Define a shortcut key for
starting a session.
activation-key character
By default, press Enter to start a
session.
9. Define a shortcut key for
terminating tasks.
escape-key { default |
character }
By default, press Ctrl+C to terminate a
task.
10. Configure the type of
terminal display.
terminal type { ansi | vt100 }
By default, the terminal display type is
ANSI.
The device supports two types of
terminal display: ANSI and VT100. HP
recommends that you set the display
type of both the device and the client to
VT100. If the device 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.
11. Configure the user privilege
level for login users.
user privilege level level
By default, the default command level
is 0 for the AUX user interface.
12. Set the maximum number of
lines to be displayed on a
screen.
screen-length screen-length
By default, a screen displays 24 lines at
most.
A value of 0 disables pausing between
screens of output.
13. Set the size of command
history buffer.
history-command max-size
value
By default, the buffer saves 10 history
commands at most.
14. Set the idle-timeout timer.
idle-timeout minutes [ seconds ]
The default idle-timeout is 10 minutes.
The system automatically terminates the
user's connection if there is no
information interaction between the
device and the user in timeout time.
Setting idle-timeout to 0 disables the
timer.
The port properties of the terminal emulation program must be the same as the default settings of the AUX
port, which are shown in the following table:
