6.3.9 PORT Command
NOTE
Unless you are specifically setting parameters other than speed,
character size, parity and
XON/XOFF
flow control, you SHOULD
NOT use the PORT command in a MUXserver 100 configuration.
The PORT command allows selection of the asynchronous port parameters.
These parameters are changed immediately on completion of the command. All
asynchronous ports mapped in a logical connection to the MUXserver 100 have
the live speed, character size, parity and XON/XOFF flow control downloaded
from the MUXserver 100. Only asynchronous logical connections from one
DECmux II unit to another DECmux II unit require the port parameters to be
set at the DECmux II units. Special DECmux II features (for example, DTR/
DSR flow control) can be set through the supervisor port of the DECmux II
unit using the PORT command.
Syntax:
PORT Port-Number
Parameters:
Port-Number
Is the asynchronous port number selected. The range is "0" to "7" and "S"
where 0 through 7 are the asynchronous ports, and "S" is the supervisor port.
The system will prompt for the paranleters and display the current setting as
shown below.
If
no change is required for a parameter, just type RETURN. To
display the alternatives for a parameter type "?" followed by return.
The parameters, their alternate values and initial defaults are shown in Table
6-1.
There is no PORT command on the
~v'lUXserver
100.
On DECmux II ports mapped to a MUXserver 100, the terminal speed, parity,
character size and XON/XOFF flow control are overridden by the MUXserver
100 settings for the ports.
