B Using the Serial Interface This section describes specific configuration options available for the serial interface. The Fibre Channel to SCSI router allows the user to access Ethernet configuration settings through the serial interface. Serial Port Connection The RJ-11 connector on the back panel of the Fibre Channel to SCSI router provides a serial port that is compatible with RS-232 signaling levels.
Setting Up Serial Port Communications Using the Serial Interface Setting Up Serial Port Communications Leave the Fibre Channel to SCSI router turned off until you have set up the serial port communications on your host computer unless serial I/O was previously established and is currently running. The Fibre Channel to SCSI router is designed to communicate with a terminal or any operating system utilizing a terminal emulator. For example, Windows 9x, NT 4.
Ethernet Configuration Using the Serial Interface Ethernet Configuration This option allows for setting up all Ethernet network settings, including IP address, Subnet mask, IP gateway, SNMP and security settings, Ethernet mode, physical address, and host name. Figure B-2. Ethernet Configuration Menu Ethernet Configuration Menu X.XX.XX XXXXXX XXXXXX-XXX_XXXXXXXXXXXXXX 01/06/2003 08:56:22 IP Address : 192.231.36.101 Subnet Mask : 255.255.255.0 IP Gateway : 0.0.0.
Using the Serial Interface • Ethernet Configuration Select 5 to toggle the Ethernet mode among these options: 10Mbps Only 100Mbps (half duplex) Only 100Mbps (full duplex) Only 10/100Mbps (Auto-Neg.) • Select 6 to change the hostname. This alphanumeric entry is one word up to eight characters long. Note. Do not use an uppercase Z as a part of the hostname as it is the autobaud hot key used by the Microsoft Windows hyper terminal utility for serial connections. Select 7 to toggle the DHCP setting.
Using the Serial Interface • Ethernet Configuration Select 9 to change security settings, including the user name and password. User names and passwords should be unique and kept confidential. Use a combination of letters and numbers when creating user names and passwords.
