parity

This asynchronous port parameter defines the type of parity that the
asynchronous port uses. The options are even, odd, or none. The default
is none.

password

This Annex parameter modifies the RA 6300's administrative password.
This password is used for access to the superuser CLI commands and for
administrative access to an RA 6300. It overrides the CLI lock and virtual
CLI passwords. The string size ranges from 0 to 15 characters.
If the RA 6300 is configured with an IP address, the default
administrative password is the RA 6300's IP address in dotted-
decimal notation .
If the RA 6300 is not yet configured with an IP address and the
administrative password has not been modified (either via this
parameter or via the CLI passwd command), the default password is
a null string ("") .
If the RA 6300 is not configured with an IP address and boots via
MOP, IPX, or from FLASH ROM, the default password is a null string
("") and entering a carriage return at the Password prompt places you
in superuser mode.
Even if password is not set, the default administrative password is
required to access the superuser CLI commands.
Changes to this parameter take effect immediately.
