To configure common settings for a console/AUX user interface:
Step
1. Enter system view.
2. Enter console/AUX
user interface view.
3. Set the baud rate.
4. Specify the parity
check mode.
5. Specify the number of
stop bits.
6. Specify the number of
data bits for each
character.
7. Define a shortcut key
for starting a terminal
session.
8. Define a shortcut key
for terminating tasks.
9. Configure the

Remarks
N/A
N/A
By default, the baud rate is 9600 bps.
The default is none, namely, no parity
check.
The default is 1. The device does not
support the 1.5 keyword.
Stop bits indicate the end of a character.
The more the stop bits, the slower the
transmission.
The default is 8.
The setting depends on the character
coding type. For example, you can set it
to 7 if standard ASCII characters are to
be sent, and set it to 8 if extended ASCII
characters are to be sent.
By default, pressing Enter starts the
terminal session.
By default, pressing Ctrl+C terminates a
task.
By default, the flow control mode is none.
By default, the terminal display type is
ANSI.
The device supports two terminal display
types: ANSI and VT100. To ensure
proper display on the terminal, set the
display type of both the device and the
terminal to VT100. Otherwise, when a
command line has more than 80
characters, an anomaly such as cursor
positioning error or abnormal terminal
display might occur.
By default, a screen displays 24 lines at
most.
A value of 0 disables pausing between
screens of output.
By default, the buffer saves 10 history
commands at most.
