Chapter 5: Using the Command Line Interface
Example 2 - Rack Unit Naming
The following command assigns the name "Linux server" to the rack unit
whose index number is 25 on the asset sensor#1.
rackUnit 1 25 name "Linux server"
Serial Port Configuration Commands
A serial port configuration command begins with
serial
.
Setting the Baud Rates
The following commands set the baud rate (bps) of the serial port
labeled CONSOLE / MODEM on the BCM2 device. Change the baud rate
before connecting it to the desired device, such as a computer, a
Raritan's P2CIM-SER, or a modem, through the serial port, or there are
communications errors. If you change the baud rate dynamically after
the connection has been made, you must reset the BCM2 or power cycle
the connected device for proper communications.
Determine the CONSOLE baud rate:
serial consoleBaudRate <baud_rate>
Note: The serial port bit-rate change is required when the BCM2 works
in conjunction with Raritan's Dominion LX KVM switch. Dominion LX only
supports 19200 bps for communications over the serial interface.
Determine the MODEM baud rate:
serial modemBaudRate <baud_rate>
Variables:
• <baud_rate> is one of the baud rate options:
