DETAILED STEPS
PurposeCommand or Action
Enters global configuration mode.configure terminal
Example:

switch(config)#
Step 1
Enters COM1 configuration mode.line com1
Example:
switch# line com1
switch(config-com1)#
Step 2
Configures the number of data bits per byte. The range
is from 5 to 8. The default is 8.
databits bits
Example:
switch(config-com1)# databits 7
Step 3
Enables flow control on the hardware. The default is
enabled.
flowcontrol hardware
Example:
switch(config-com1)# flowcontrol hardware
Step 4
Use the no flowcontrol hardware command to disable
flow control on the hardware.
Configures the parity. The default is none.parity {even | none | odd}
Example:
switch(config-com1)# parity even
Step 5
Configures the transmit and receive speed. The default
is 9600.
speed {300 | 1200 | 2400 | 4800 | 9600 | 38400 | 57600 |
