Console Settings (Autobaud Rate Support)

The console port speed can be set to one of the following speeds: 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, and 115200 or to Auto Detection.

Auto Detection enables the device to detect your console speed automatically, so that you are not required to set it explicitly.

When Auto Detection is not enabled, the console port speed is automatically set to the last speed that was set manually at (115,200 by default).

When Auto Detection is enabled but the console baud-rate was not yet discovered, the system uses speed 115,200 for displaying text (for example, the boot-up information).

After Auto Detection is enabled in the Console Settings page, it can be activated by connecting the console to the device and press the Enter key twice. The device detects the baud rate automatically.

To enable Auto Detection or to manually set the baud rate of the console:

  1. Click Administration > Console Settings.
  2. Select one of the following:
  3. Auto Detection—The console baud rate is detected automatically.
  4. Static—Select one of the available speeds.
