Use the set console baud command to change the baud rate of the console port. For example, to
set the console port baud rate to 19200:
C5(su)->set console baud 19200

VT100 Terminal Mode

VT100 terminal mode supports automatic console session termination on removal of the serial
connection (vs. timeout). This mode requires that the device attached to the console port be
running VT100 terminal emulation.
In VT100 mode, the switch polls for device status (using the appropriate VT100 escape sequence)
to detect an attached device. At any time, if the switch fails to get a status reply, an existing console
session is terminated.
On receipt of the first polled status response, the login banner is displayed if it is configured.
VT100 terminal mode is disabled by default on the console port. Use the set console vt100
command to enable or disable this mode. The show console command displays the current setting
of Vt100 terminal mode.

Port Settings

This section describes the port settings that can be configured.

Port Status

By default, all ports are enabled at device startup. You may want to disable ports for security or to
troubleshoot network issues.
Use the set port disable command to administratively disable one or more ports. When this
command is executed, in addition to disabling the physical Ethernet link, the port will no longer
learn entries in the forwarding database.
Use the set port enable command to administratively enable one or more ports.
The following example disables Gigabit Ethernet ports 1 through 4 on the switch unit 1:
C5(su)->set port disable ge.1.1-4

Port Name or Alias

The port alias feature allows you to associate a name with a port.
Use the set port alias command to assign an alias name to a port. If the alias name contains spaces,
the text string must be surrounded by double quotes. Maximum length is 60 characters.
You can delete an alias name from a port with the set port alias command, by specifying a port
string but no text string.
Use the show port alias command to display alias names for one or more ports.
