The speed with which the device port exchanges data with the attached serial
device.
From the drop-down list, select the baud rate. Most devices use 9600 for the
administration port, so the console port defaults to this value.
Number of data bits used to transmit a character. From the drop-down list, select
the number of data bits. The default is 8 data bits.
The number of stop bits that indicate that a byte of data has been transmitted.
From the drop-down list, select the number of stop bits. The default is 1.
Parity checking is a rudimentary method of detecting simple, single-bit errors.
From the drop-down list, select the parity. The default is none.
A method of preventing buffer overflow and loss of data. The available methods
include none, xon/xoff (software), and rts/cts (hardware). The default is none.
The number of minutes (1-30) after which an idle session on the console is
automatically logged out. Disabled by default.
If selected, when you connect to the console port with a terminal emulator, you will
see the last lines output to the console, for example, the SLC boot messages or
the last lines output during a CLI session on the console.
